We Are Moving Stories, the international online community supporting new voices in film, features Director/Producer Melissa Mars for an interview about The Last Touch. They chat about why Mars made the movie, how she explored the theme of connection in a personal and universal way, the overwhelmingly supportive and positive feedback she received for the film…
The Last Touch holds a metaphorical mirror up to our world. It shows us a vision of what we are drifting towards, a world where we are so connected virtually that we are disconnected physically and emotionally. It acts as a warning – [look at what we have to lose]. It may be disturbing, but isn’t it what we all like about dystopias?’
What is true connection? How is technology connecting us and how does it threaten the existence of connection as we know it?
