(Soeur Sourire)
Stijn Coninx
When the situation at home becomes unbearable, Jeannine, a young Belgian girl, feels that joining a convent is the only way out. Life in the convent is hard for the young, passionate woman, but also gives her moments of joy she had never had before. She composes a song which is used by the church in an attempt to rejuvenate its waning image: the song becomes a hit all over the world.
