The Diving Bell and the Butterfly (12) Language: French - Year: 2008:  112 minutes

At the age of 43 Elle France editor, Jean- Dominique Bauby, suffered a stroke that paralysed his entire body, except his left eye. Using that eye to blink out his memoir, Bauby eloquently described the aspects of his interior world, from the psychological torment of being trapped inside his body to his imagined stories from lands he'd only visited in his mind.
