CGiii Comment

A spirit-lifting bromance - like you have never seen before.

Stereotypes done with intelligence, warmth, honesty and humour...this is the epitome of life-affirming cinema. Perfectly paced, perfectly composed - a symphonic triumph.

Quite easily, one of the best French films - if not, the best.

The(ir) Blurb...

In Paris, the aristocratic and intellectual Philippe is a quadriplegic millionaire who is interviewing candidates for the position of his carer, with his red-haired secretary Magalie. Out of the blue, the rude African Driss cuts the line of candidates and brings a document from the Social Security and asks Phillipe to sign it to prove that he is seeking a job position so he can receive his unemployment benefit. Philippe challenges Driss, offering him a trial period of one month to gain experience helping him. Then Driss can decide whether he would like to stay with him or not. Driss accepts the challenge and moves to the mansion, changing the boring life of Phillipe and his employees.
