This is a movie based on true story. This combination looks interesting that caught my eyes actually, so I choose to watch this movie and thanks to Ms Soo XD It is about paralyzed millionaire forges an unlikely friendship with
the Senegalese parolee he hired to take care of him. Two totally
different worlds are going to mix themselves : Vivaldi and Earth Wind
and Fire, fine letters and argot, suit and tracksuit... and create a
unique friendship.

My review: The storyline is funny and simple. Although the story is simple yet i felt very warmth: their unique friendship is actually very touching and makes me felt so grateful for the people I met. I would also like to mention that every actor and actress in this movie are superb~ especially Mr. Omar, I like the way he portrayed his character as Paris's poor, suburban high-rise ghettoes with candor attitude that blend well into "his-another-kind" of society. Even working with people that are not from the same atmosphere, he still be himself, the simple and kind-hearted one which make the movie so interesting. Be patient and try to feel the movie with your heart, and think about it. HAPPY WEEKEND~
