IMDB Rating: 8.1/10
Subject: Dominique Bauby, editor of Elle magazine, lost all bodily functions except the sight in her left eye as a result of a cerebral hemorrhage at the age of 42. Using an alphabet arranged according to the frequency of use of letters, Bauby's novel was translated into many languages, including Turkish. The diver in the movie refers to an old-style metal diving suit similar to the one used by sponge divers. It cannot move, it sinks into the depths with the dress. She screams, flutters, but no one can hear her voice. The butterfly, on the other hand, is the symbol of freedom and humanity that continues to live in a person whose body has stopped. A wink to write a book is like a butterfly flapping its wings to fly… The Butterfly and the Diver is a wonderful film of hope that proves that one can hold on to life despite all the difficulties.
