The story begins when a man hits Ava with his car, a few miles from his bungalow. He brings her flowers at the hospital and offers to do her errands. He also brings the letter that she dropped that night on the road.

In New York, Ava's brother, Michael, receives the same letter. He thinks about it as he gets out of the shower and sees a naked woman looking at him from the opposite apartment. The sister and brother can't escape the letter: their estranged father is dying and wants to meet them. Can they forgive their father and face each other after so many years of estrangement? Will new, unexpected friends be able to offer them the advice and comfort they need?

With insight and sensitivity, "Out of Touch" is a deeply absorbing story about love and vulnerability, sex and power, and the unbreakable bonds of family.
