Fernie Indie Films presents The Intouchables

Fernie Indie Films is presenting The Intouchables as its next feature on Monday, October 1 at 7 p.m. at the Vogue Theatre.

The Intouchables  (France, French with English subtitles), one of the highest grossing non-English language films of all time, tells the story of the improbable friendship between Philippe, a wealthy quadriplegic and Driss, a young offender of Senegalese descent who is hired as his live-in caregiver.

Philippe, a widower living in Paris with his teenage daughter, hires Driss, a recently released ex-con, because of his brutal straightforwardness and lack of pity. Based on a true story the Intouchables is a well-executed and thoroughly enjoyable culture-clash comedy about a friendship that transcends the social and economic divide.
