"Untouchable," originally titled "Le Intouchables," tells the true story of the unlikely friendship between Philippe Pozzo di Borgo, a quadriplegic aristocrat, and Driss, a young immigrant recently released from prison. Hired as Philippe's caregiver, Driss comes from a rough background, contrasting sharply with Philippe's wealthy, sheltered life. Their bond transcends social boundaries, as laughter and warmth replace despair in Philippe's life. Through their interactions, both men experience personal growth and redefine what it means to live fully. This heartwarming tale celebrates human connection, resilience, and the transformative power of friendship. [Generated by language model - please report any problems].
