'Beautiful, moving and nuanced' - Sheila O'Malley, rogerebert.com Academy-award nominee Harvey Keitel (The Irishman) stars in this uplifting testament to the power of faith. Based on real-life events, Fatima is one of the most beautiful and cinematic stories of faith ever realised. In 1917 Portugal, in a time of global war, three children are visited by the Virgin Mary. But their tale of this miracle is only met with cynicism. A secular government and a self-interested Church urge the children to take back their claims. In the face of mounting pressure, even their parents turn on them. But the children's account is unshakeable, and soon their story travels across the world. The faithful travel far and wide to pay their respects. What follows will draw the attention of the entire world, and bring the forces of faith and cynicism into stark conflict.
