Happy Face is a Canadian drama film, directed by Alexandre Franchi and released in 2018. The film stars Robin L'Houmeau as Stan, a young man from Montreal who tries to cope with his mother's cancer treatment, which has disfigured her appearance, by disguising himself with bandages and joining a support group for people with disfiguring facial conditions in the hopes of better understanding her situation. Debbie Lynch-White plays Vanessa, the nurse who leads the support group, while the members of the support group are portrayed by real people with facial disabilities, including motivational speaker David Roche and actress and model Alison Midstokke.
