It stars the duo of Christian Clavier and Jean Reno, and Valérie Lemercier. It also features Marie-Anne Chazel, Christian Bujeau, Isabelle Nanty and Didier Pain in supporting roles. In the film, a 12th-century knight and his squire travel in time to the end of the 20th century and find themselves adrift in modern society. Les Visiteurs was the highest-grossing film in France in 1993 and remains one of the highest-grossing films in the country today.
