What's left behind the scenes

  • The film is based on the novel of the same name by Katherine Halm.
  • The fate of the main character is based on real facts from the life of a former nun, with whom Audrey Hepburn consulted before filming.
  • There is a legend that Hepburn demanded a bidet be provided for her during filming in Congo. The actress always denied this, wondering how such an extravagant item could have ended up in that poor African country.
  • Artists from the ballet company of the Rome Opera portrayed the nuns in the film. Choreography for complex monastic rituals was specifically created for them.
