SÉRAPHINE is the true story of Séraphine Louis aka Séraphine de Senlis (Yolande Moreau), a simple and profoundly devout housekeeper who in 1905 at age 41 — self-taught and with the instigation of her guardian angel, began painting brilliantly colorful canvases.
Director Martin Provost builds his story around the relationship between the avant-garde art dealer and the visionary cleaning lady, forging a testament to the mysteries of creativity and the resilience of one
woman’s spirit. A sleeper hit in France, SÉRAPHINE went on to a surprise win of the Best Picture and Best Actress for Yolande Moreau along with five other awards at the 2009 Cesars, the French equivalent of the Academy Awards.
Winner of 7 French Cesar Awards (The French Academy Awards) including Best Film, Best Actress and Best Director.

This film is based on the story of French painter Séraphine Louis and stars Yolande Moreau as the protagonist. Seraphine is a middle aged housekeeper who has an extraordinary talent which hides from those around her. And amazing film and an extraordinary performance from Moreau. Moreau won ‘Best Acress – Leading Role’ at the Cesar awards and the film won the ‘Best Film’ category.
