Each year Christian believers from around the world throng the Portuguese village of Fatima. Here they worship God – and remember the children who first heralded The Miracle of Our Lady of Fatima.
This much-loved movie thoughtfully recreates the 1917 events that brought hope and religious fervor to a war-ravaged world. Three peasant youths see a vision: a woman in a cloud of light offering words of faith and prophecy. They face skepticism and torture – but are soon embraced by faithful masses drawn by the promise of a miracle. Director John Brahm skillfully balances simplicity and spectavle, all powerfully supported by Max Steiner's Oscar- nominated score. As the New York Journal-American observed, the movie "lights up the screen like a ray of sunshine."
