Event Details : 'Lourdes: Nothing Tests Faith more than a Miracle' film screening as part of films on Spirituality and Faith Series.
A young woman wheelchair-bound by multiple sclerosis joins a pilgrimage to Lourdes in the Pyrenees. People go to Lourdes for miracle cures, but for Christine the pilgrimage is essentially “the only way I get out,” and she finds the town “a bit touristy.” Yet there is neither dismissal of faith healing, nor facile answers to questions about suffering and prayer in this film, praised for its balancing of irony and sensitivity.
