Soeur Sourire

Directed by Stijn Coninx (2008)

A Belgian biographical television film following the life of Jeanine Deckers, a Dominican nun who achieved unexpected international fame in the early 1960s under the stage name Sœur Sourire with her cheerful song "Dominique."

The film traces her turbulent journey from religious celebrity to personal tragedy, culminating in her death alongside her companion Annie Pécher.
