Insensitively sensitive! A beautiful film indeed.

Rating: 10/10 (4 August 2015)

It's a rarity to see a comedy on disability, to see humor in tragedy. And this film teaches the viewers more than that: to have hope, to be free of your inhibitions (physical, mental, economic). I can appreciate that more since it is very rare in Indian cinema, we love being tragic and our films excel in creating pity for people who are suffering. Oh, but this film.... it touches you deeply and that too without bringing tears in our eyes, but a wide smile on your face. And it's not just about helping an invalid to carry on with life, it is much deeper. Both of the central characters see each other as one, where Driss sees Philippe as a rich invalid but doesn't treat him as one; he has no pity for Philippe, which is exactly something a person fed up of being an invalid needs. Philippe knows that Driss is an invalid too, socially and economically, but he doesn't lecture him on virtues. Both of them try to push each other in doing something they will never do by themselves. And that's the beauty of it, no hand-holding, no tears shed and yet one of the most human films of our time.
