Intouchables is a witty comedy about the unexpected friendship that develops between two people with nothing in common and very different ways of looking at life: a millionaire left tetraplegic after an accident and the man hired as his carer, an immigrant from the Parisian suburbs recently released from prison. —Festival de San Sebastián

When a snapshot in the life of a tetraplegic is the feel good movie of the year for me, I know I have found a gem. Interestingly enough the main reason for this, is the performance of the unknown to me Oman Sy, playing the role of the caretaker, oozing with innocence, charm and energy. This is one of that you'd want to watch again and again.

I felt good after watching this film, then a while later I felt sad. It's one of those film that work on your mind on so many levels that you can't really cap it under one feeling. I was laughing most of the movie, but at some point you feel like you need to cry on someone's shoulder. In short: touching.
