About Lilla helgonet
Celestin is the singing teacher in a monastery and Denis is one of her students. They both dream about the life outside. (It's a Swedish version of the famous vaudeville-opérette "Mam'zelle Nitouche").
Directed by Weyler Hildebrand, Lilla helgonet leans on a strong ensemble — Marguerite Viby, Åke Söderblom, Thor Modéen — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about comedy titles of 1944.
