Writer\director Lynn Shelton (Humpday, Your Sister's Sister) serves up this unusual tale of shifting family dynamics centered on a pair of siblings who both experience an unexpected transformation. Laid-back Abby (Rosemarie DeWitt) enjoys a successful career as a massage therapist and a healthy sex life with her boyfriend until one day, without warning, she develops an intense dread of bodily contact. Meanwhile, her aloof brother Paul (Josh Pais) finds his failing dental practice booming when rumors begin to circulate that his touch has healing powers. Ellen Page and Scoot McNairy also star. ~ Jason Buchanan, Rovi
