The Diving Bell and the Butterfly (France).
A beautiful film based on the true story of the former editor of 'Elle' magazine, Jean-Dominique Bauby. Bauby suffered a massive stroke one day and remained completely paralysed except for his left eyelid. He refused to give up on life and was able to dictate a whole book by blinking his eyelid for letters of the alphabet.
