The series will close with “Touch,” a film from Iceland in English, Japanese and Icelandic with English subtitles.

The romantic drama begins in the late 1960s when Kristofer, an Icelandic man studying at the London School of Economics, accepts the challenge of his fellow students to apply for a job as a dishwasher in a Japanese restaurant in London. He is hired, learns to cook Japanese style and falls in love with Miko, the owner’s daughter. After a holiday, he returns to the restaurant, but finds it closed and Miko and her father gone with no forwarding address.

Fifty years later, Kristofer is a widower in Iceland with medical issues. When his doctor advises him to take care of unfinished business, he returns to London and seeks out a former employee of the restaurant who gives him an address in Hiroshima.

“Touch” will be screened 7 p.m. April 29 and 2:30 p.m. May 1.
