Baltasar Kormakur was in a reflective mood at the Taormina Film Festival, where his romantic drama Touch had its Italian premiere this past week.

The Icelandic filmmaker compared Touch to his first feature, 2000’s 101 Reykjavik. The former was “a black comedy about love,” while Touch is “a way more sincere approach to love and life,” he said.

Touch, which has just become the biggest film of the year in Iceland at $569,600, is based on Ólafur Jóhann Ólafsson’s bestselling 2021 novel, Snerting.

It wouldn’t be surprising to see it become the Icelandic entry for the International Feature Oscar race this year — Kormakur already has repped his home country four times, making the shortlist with 2012’s The Deep.
