**Intouchables – 𝒊𝒏 🇫🇷𝒘𝒊𝒕𝒉 🇬🇧𝒔𝒖𝒃𝒕𝒊𝒕𝒍𝒆𝒔** **🎬 Date & Time: Friday, July 31st, Drinks from 7pm at the bar of the cinema, screening at 8pm** **📽️ Cinéma: Lucernaire, 53 Rue Notre Dame des Champs, Paris 6** **🎟️ Movie Tickets: €6.00 – €11.00** **[https://www.lucernaire.fr/cinema/intouchables/](https://www.lucernaire.fr/cinema/intouchables/)** **Following a paragliding accident, Philippe, a rich aristocrat, hires Driss, a young man from the suburbs just released from prison, as a home helper… In short, the least suitable person for the job. Together they will make Vivaldi and Earth Wind and Fire coexist, the word and the joke, the costumes and the tracksuit bottoms… Two universes will telescope, tame each other, to give birth to a friendship as crazy, funny and strong as unexpected, a unique relationship that will spark and make them… Untouchable.** **“It is possible to summarize the experience of watching “The Intouchables” in nine words: You will laugh; you will cry; you will cringe. The caricatures are astonishingly brazen, as ancient comic archetypes — a pompous master and a clowning servant right out of Molière — are updated with vague social relevance, an overlay of Hollywood-style sentimentality and a conception of race that might kindly be called cartoonish.” — The New York Times** **Watch the trailer with English subtitles: [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=34WIbmXkewU](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=34WIbmXkewU)**

Ⓜ️ ​**À quoi t’attendre :** ➡️ **L'aller serein.** 35 minutes de connexion silencieuse. On s'écrit des messages sur du vrai papier et on discute de tout, la vie, Paris, nos rêves, nos meilleurs souvenirs... ⬅️ **Le retour social.** 35 minutes pour discuter voix haute, te connecter, jouer et rencontrer de nouvelles personnes. 📵 Les téléphones sont éteints et rangés pour toute la durée du trajet aller-retour. ​***Note*** *: Le métro reste ouvert à tous, d'autres usagers monteront sûrement sur notre ligne (probablement avec leurs téléphones 😉).* ​**Où & Quand :** 📍 Un aller-retour sur la **Ligne 6**, de la station **Charles de Gaulle – Étoile** (point de départ) jusqu'à la station **Nation**, puis retour. 🗓 **Jeudi 30 juillet, de 20h30 à 22h00 environ.** ⚠️ Merci d'arriver vers **20h15** sur le quai, car nous prendrons le métro de **20h37**. ​**Point de rendez-vous exact :** Station **Charles de Gaulle – Étoile** ➔ **Ligne 6** ➔ **Direction Nation** ➔ **Sur le quai**.

Instead, they're playing the **Real Life Chat** — a game designed to spark real-life conversations. ​On Thursday July 30th, we're challenging Paris to pause its endless scroll and transform Line 6 into a phone-free nomadic living room. Ⓜ️ *** ​**What to expect:** ​➡️ The outbound journey: **35 minutes of silent connection.** We write messages to each other on real paper and talk about everything — life, Paris, our dreams, our favourite memories... ⬅️ The return journey: **35 minutes to talk out loud**, connect, play and meet new people. 📵 Phones are switched off and put away for the entire round trip. ​*Note: The metro remains open to everyone — other passengers will likely join our line (probably with their phones 😉).* *** ​**Where & When:** ​📍 **A round trip on Line 6**, from Charles de Gaulle – Étoile station (starting point) to Nation station, then back.
