A lighter, faster piece that plays during the lighter moments of the film—specifically when Driss is "testing" whether Philippe can feel his legs, or during the shaving scene where Driss tries to mold Philippe’s mustache into various shapes (Hitler, Dali).

When The Intouchables (original French title: Intouchables ) premiered in 2011, audiences expected a classic French buddy comedy. What they got was a cultural phenomenon that shattered box office records and became the most-watched French film of all time.

This is a masterclass in soundtrack curation. The directors understood that Philippe’s world (classical music, paintings, silence) needed to clash with Driss’s world (Boogie Wonderland, Vivaldi remixed, volume).

The standout track from the score is undoubtedly "Una Mattina." Played during the film’s opening sequence—a high-speed drive through Paris that sets the tone for the duo's friendship—the piece begins with a solitary, delicate piano melody. It is melancholic yet hopeful. The title translates to "One Morning," suggesting a new beginning, a fresh start.

Another pivotal Einaudi track, "Fly," is used extensively during moments of liberation. The track features a more rhythmic left-hand pattern, emulating a heartbeat or the flapping of wings. It captures the essence of what Driss brings to Philippe’s life: movement. While Philippe cannot move his body, the music suggests his spirit is taking flight. The interplay between the somber piano and the slightly more upbeat tempo mirrors the unlikely friendship—sadness tinged with the joy of newfound connection.
