In Berlin, the aircraft propulsion engineer Kyle Pratt (Jodie Foster) is grieving the loss of her beloved husband, who felt from the roof of their building. She quits her job and decides to travel with her traumatized six years old daughter Julia (Marlene Lawston) to bury the body in Long Island. While in the flight to New York, Kyle falls asleep, and when she wakes up, her daughter is missing. She requests a search in the plane to the captain, but nobody has seen her daughter, whose name is not in the flight manifest, disbelieving Kyle. She tries to convince the air marshal Carson (Peter Sarsgaard) that she is not delusional. [imdb]

Dr Starling move over - I found Jodie Foster's next movie Oscar-winning role! Dr. Jill Bolte Taylor who wrote ""My Stroke of Insight"" and delivered a talk about it on TED.com that will knock your socks off! The video's been seen 5 million times and I understand why.
Taylor was a Harvard trained brain scientist who suffered a massive stroke. I don't think we'll ever hear a story like this - Taylor understands how the brain functions and she was able to observe her mind deteriorating. She writes about the euphoric nirvana and a sense of complete peace and well-being she discovered in her stroke! She talks about this in her incredible (don't miss it) talk on TED.com. The book is great too - highly recommended. You'll learn how to 'step to the right of their left brain' to uncover a deep internal peace. Sign me up!
