Sinopse

Originally published as You Changed My Life
 
My gift? Insensitivity. I was a human fortress inside - Superman and  his colleagues were nothing. I was convinced that the world counted on  real, and rare, superheroes... and that I was one of them. The highest-grossing non-English-language film of all time, The Intouchables  reveals the life of a charismatic con man, Abdel Sellou (played by the  award-winning actor Omar Sy), whose friendship with a disabled French  aristocrat, Phillippe Pozzo di Borgo, inspired the record-breaking hit  movie.
 
You Changed My Life is Abdel Sellou's memoir of growing up on the  streets of Paris as a cheeky young Algerian immigrant, honing his  talents as a petty thief and scam artist before meeting the man who  would forever change his life, as Abdel would change his. 
 In 1992, Count Phillippe Pozzo di Borgo, on the heels of his wife's  diagnosis with a terminal illness, suffered a paragliding accident that  left him a quadriplegic. Forty-two years old, trapped inside his  luxurious Paris town house, he was an outcast for the first time in his  life. Abdel, an unemployed Algerian immigrant who had been an outcast  for his entire existence, would become Phillipe's unlikely caretaker.  Quick-thinking, unsentimental, and more than a little wild, Abdel  surprises both himself and his employer by developing an unswerving  loyalty - and orchestrating more than a few adventures - that help  restore Phillipe's appetite for life. The story of Abdel's friendship with Phillipe has already touched the  hearts of millions. Now his personal story of transformation from a kid  who cares for no one to the person he is today will affect many more.
