Movie- The Diving Bell and the Butterfly

44 year old Elle Magazine editor goes into coma because of a stroke. After a few weeks, his whole body is locked-in except his left eye. With only his left eye, writes his journey. He blinks once for yes and blinks twice for no. The hospital team works hard to bring him out of the lock-in syndrome. 

Despite being in the most difficult situation, he was determined to write his story. What drove him to do that? I'm interested to read the memoir. 

The movie is visually a master piece. We get to see through the eye of the Jean-Do. Awesome direction by Julian Schnabel.
