Oscar-nominated director to shoot documentary on Celine Dion's life


New York, Sep 28 (IANS): French Canadian singer and international celebrity Celine Dion's untitled feature documentary will narrate her life journey, reports Variety.com.

The as-yet-untitled feature will be directed by the Oscar-nominated filmmaker Irene Taylor (director of 'Beware The Slenderman' and 'Hear and Now'), and "serve as the definitive feature" on the star, according to promotional material released on the film.

Dion, the best-selling Canadian artiste in music history, has given her blessing to the project, being helmed by Sony Music Entertainment's Premium Content Division, in partnership with SME Canada and Vermilion Films.

The film will cover the singer's many accomplishments, including iconic album releases, award and accolades, world tours, and Las Vegas residencies.

Dion, Variety.com reported, is noted for her powerful and technically skilled vocals. Her music has been influenced by genres ranging from rock and R&B to gospel and classical.
