Local notes
The Story that Touched the Hearts of Untold Millions. "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 new 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." In English with Korean subtitles. 101 minutes
