''[[The Boy in the Plastic Bubble]]'' is a 1976 made-for-TV movie. The film centers on the life of Tod Lubitch ([[John Travolta]]), who was born with an improperly functioning immune system. This means that contact with unfiltered air may kill him, so he must live out his life in [[Bubble Boy|incubator-like conditions]]. He lives with his parents, since they decided to move him from Texas Children's Hospital where he was being kept as a boy. He is constricted to staying in his room all his life, where he eats, learns, reads and exercises, while being protected from the outside world by various coverings.
