PROGRAM DESCRIPTION
Experience life from a unique perspective with the emotionally compelling film, Touched with Fire, arriving on Digital HD May 24 and on Blu-ray (plus Digital HD), DVD (plus Digital) and On Demand June 7 from Lionsgate. Katie Holmes (Batman Begins) and Luke Kirby (Mambo Italiano), shine as two people trying to figure out how to balance the brilliance of instability with the realities of life in the passionate story of unexpected love. Hailed as “Katie Holmes’ best performance in years!” by the Huffington Post, the film was an official selection at the 2015 SXSW Film Festival and a New York Times Critic’s Pick. From Executive Producer Spike Lee (Chi-raq) and writer/director Paul Dalio (Faith, Love and Whiskey), the Touched with Fire Blu-ray and DVD will be available for the suggested retail price of $24.99 and $19.98.
Katie Holmes and Luke Kirby star as two poets with bipolar disorders whose art is fueled by their emotional extremes. When they meet in a treatment facility, their chemistry is instant and intense, driving each other to new heights. They pursue their passion, which breaks outside the bounds of sanity and swings them from fantastical highs to tormented lows, until they ultimately must choose between sanity and love.
