Séraphine

Séraphine is a quiet yet stirring film about a woman's struggle between reality and spiritual devotion. Wrapped in beautiful cinematography Séraphine scrubs and cleans most of the day, yet her hard labor inspires something fierce inside: the need to paint. Yolande Moreau gives a wonderful performance as Séraphine and the film went onto win several awards. I caught it at the City of Angels Film Fest and unfortunately it's one of those cinematic gems that little coverage in the States.

Available on Netflix.
