Wish me butterflies

This week was the international festival week at Georgia Tech and an international film series was organised as a part of it. So, Today they played a french movie namely," The Diving Bell and the Butterfly". Iheard about this movie from one of my friends whose recommendations about movies (except the anime movies!) are turning out worthwatching.

This is a movie based on a true story of how a person who suffering from locked-in-syndrome, the entire body parlayzed, except for his left eye, hearing and brain functionality , fights back all the adversaries and lives on to publish a book called "The Diving Bell and the Butterfly" by blinking his left eye to dictate the story to the translator. The entire movie is shown through the window of his left eye and alternates  between before and after of the locked-in-syndrome phases of his life. One of those movies which makes you realize that there is more to life than the petty mundane quibbles of coccooned up lives. The real problems are unconjurable and one has not even the slightest idea.

An inspirational movie, wished me a lot of butterflies and made my day!

A detailed review, btw.
