Christine, a lonely wheelchair user, goes on a trip to the pilgrimage city of Lourdes, famous for its miracles. Christine doesn't have much faith in them. But what is the surprise when he can move the next day? Director Jessica Hausner masterfully plays the two strings of faith here: does it have a real power to heal, or is it all just false comfort?
