The Diving Bell and the Butterfly

23:31:00

Life is such a fragile thing. One day you're the king of the world with your plans, expectations, and boosts of confidence. And then BAM! One event turns your life upside down. Yes, it is unexpected. Yes, it hurts as hell. Yes, this is the life, 'Why me?' does apply and you can ask pleading questions as biblical Job, never expecting the answer. You see, some people win the lottery, some lose. And either way, it doesn't make your life any less worth the deal. 
Can you deal with your life once you're struck by a tragedy? Can you manage with the irreversible circumstances of your fate, survive physical pain, the lack of control and disability? Can you accept that you cannot be always on top and at times the game of life places you in the losing position? Can you find meaning and optimism in what's left and all the little things that remind you that life isn't over yet, even though for you it might be over? Can you start from the beginning and try again to learn everything that made you once a complete human being? A beautiful film about a life, a fight, a struggle. And love, as without love any suffering hurts twice as much. The Diving Bell and the Butterfly.

On the nature of pictures

*Every Google image belongs to someone and this someone should be noted. However, if pictures are scenes from the film they most probably belong to owners of the film/producers. I use saved screens of the Google compilation of pictures, thus the pictures of pictures, which I take, cut and edit myself (as a derivative use). They are used for reviewing purposes (fair use), not for diminishing the films' profits by stealing what rightly belongs to them. Copyright is tricky, let's get used to it.
