The life of little St. Therese of Lisieux, depicted in minimalist vignettes. Therese and her sisters are all nuns in a Carmelite convent. Her devotion to Jesus and her concept of "the little way" to God are shown clearly, using plain modern language. A sense of angelic simplicity comes across without fancy lights, choirs, or showy miracles.

Saw this movie way back in the day(1986)in the cinema. Very simple, elegant and moving piece of cinema. I was really so moved that the next morning I rose and attended first mass at 07.00am in my local church!

a fabulous moment of "Cinema". I had the privilege to interview Alain Cavalier for Cinema File in 1987 in NYC
