Touchy Feely

Touchy Feely (2013) is an American indie drama directed by Lynn Shelton that you can watch online on iFILM, with Rosemarie DeWitt, Elliot Page, Ron Livingston and Allison Janney.

Abby is a massage therapist at the top of her game. Then, suddenly, bodily contact starts to disgust her. She can't explain it, can't work through it, and can't keep it from spilling into her relationship. Meanwhile her brother Paul — a dentist with a failing practice — discovers he can heal patients with his bare hands. Shelton's film runs these two threads with a dry, observational patience: no dramatic score, no redemptive arc spelled out, just people stumbling through an identity shift.
