Based on the profoundly moving true story that captured the world's
attention, "The Sea Inside" is about Spaniard Ramón Sampedro (Bardem), who
fought a 30-year campaign to win the right to end his life with dignity.
"The Sea Inside" is the story of Ramón's relationships with two women:
Julia (Rueda) a lawyer who supports his cause, and Rosa (Dueñas), a local
woman who wants to convince him that life is worth living. Through the
gift of his love, these two women are inspired to accomplish things they
never previously thought possible. Despite his wish to die, Ramón taught
everyone he encountered the meaning, value and preciousness of life.
Though he could not move himself, he had an uncanny ability to move
others. A truly joyous experience, "The Sea Inside" celebrates the nature
of freedom and love, and the mystery and beauty of life.
