Ramón Sampedro, who became quadriplegic following a diving accident, is unable to end his life by himself and does not wish to involve his family and friends, who would be charged with murder under Spanish law. Based on his true story, The Sea Inside retraces part of the campaign for euthanasia and the right to end one's life that he led for almost 30 years.
