The audience hears the thoughts of Bauby and has the opportunity to share the most delicate moments with this person imprisoned in his diving bell. Soon it turns out that this story is more than just a biographical production. The universal story of pople who are stuck in a pretty hopeless situation and they have only one super-thin string that ties them to this world. Memories and imagiantion are the only values that keep us humans as the movie suggests, and we hear the words of Bauby in our ears…..
„Whereupon a strange euphoria came over me. Not only was I exiled, paralyzed, mute, half deaf, deprived of all pleasures, and reduced to the existence of a jellyfish, but I was also horrible to behold. There comes a time when the heaping up of calamities brings on uncontrollable nervous laughter - when, after a final blow from fate, we decide to treat it all as a joke.”
It seems humor is indeed a solution to everythings and can free us from the huge loads of stress accumulated through the years of low periods…..Give yourself a break and see how hard it is to stay sane in a world that practically drives you crazy, while you’ll left completely motionles and impotent…..
