Two timelines 50 years apart play out in the trailer for Touch, Baltasar Kormàkur's drama about a terminally ill widower Kristófer (Egill Ólafsson) trying to learn what happened to the woman he fell in love with as a young man.

From the looks of the trailer this one's going to pack a heavy punch of nostalgia, with the older man Kristófer following in the footsteps of his younger self (Palmi Kormákur) in an effort to solve a mystery while he still can. Based on the novel by Ólafur Jóhann Ólafsson, Touch also stars Kôki, Masahiro Motoki, and Yôko Narahashi.

How to watch: Touch is coming to theaters on July 12.
