what happens when you pull the door handle? is it loose? can you move the door lock or is it stuck?

Since you can't take your door panel off to check out the insides of the hinge.
I would start off by taking the little plastic cover behind inner door handle off than use some pliers to try and unlock your door/open it by pulling/pushing on the wire in there.
If that doesn't work you can fold a thick gauge wire perhaps a hanger doubled up and try and unlock it that way, it has to have a hook shape at the end of it.
Or last option would be to get a slim jim somewhere to try and open it.
If none of that works call a locksmith
Oh yeah one last thing can you lock it and unlock it with your key? I'm assuming you can't without risking bending your key
