This critically acclaimed and award-winning French comedy-drama, inspired by a true story, charts the unlikely friendship between Philippe (Cluzet), a wealthy and cultured quadriplegic, and Driss (Omar Sy), a streetwise young man from the Paris suburbs who becomes his reluctant carer. What begins as a familiar odd-couple story soon reveals far greater depth.
Wry, tender, funny and unexpectedly hard-hitting, the film’s warmth and emotional richness have made it a longstanding international crowd-pleaser, earning 38 international awards including nine Cesar Award nominations, with Omar Sy winning Best Actor.
