The life of inspirational Sr Clare is the subject of a new film

The life of Derry nun Sister Clare Crockett will be the subject of a new film.

Sister Clare was inside a building in which she had been teaching the guitar to local children when it collapsed during an earthquake in Ecuador last April.

The film is being produced for a television channel run by her order, the Home of the Mother, according to the Irish News. A wider release has not been ruled out.

The filmmakers visited Sr Clare’s grave in Derry and visited her parents Margaret and Gerard and local priest Fr Roland Colhoun, as well as Sr Clare's friends.

Under the title 'All or Nothing: Sister Clare Crockett', the film will contain a huge archive of photographs and audio and video recordings of the Brandywell woman over the last 15 years.

Producers told The Irish News that they decided to tell Sr Clare's story because of how the 33-year-old touched so many lives.

All or Nothing: Sister Clare Crockett will be broadcast towards the end of next year.
