After six years away, we wanted to return to Galway with something unforgettable—and few films lift the heart quite like The Intouchables, one of Europe’s biggest box-office hits of all time and winner of seven César Awards, including Best Actor for Omar Sy, and nominated for a Golden Globe and BAFTA. Inspired by a true story, it follows the unlikely friendship between a wealthy quadriplegic and his exuberant carer from the Paris banlieues. Warm, witty and deeply humane, it’s a joyous reminder of how connection can transcend every divide.
Director: Olivier Nakache & Éric Toledano
Cast: François Cluzet, Omar Sy
