A Menina Que Acredita em Milagres

A feel good Christian indie emphasizing miracles for those who believe in God. I'm not Christian but sometimes it's nice to watch a movie with a positive message even though I don't believe there are such "miracles." Don't expect Oscar winning performances but enjoy for the positive message.

Wow! What a surprise. I really like this movie. This is a Christian film but you don't have to be religious or even a Christian to enjoy this wonderful movie.

The story begins in church when a young girl, Sarah (Austyn Johnson) hears the preacher say ''Faith can become so strong that it can move a mountain'' we see in Sarah's eyes, she just believes and takes God at His word. So she starts praying...and miracles start happening. Sarah prays for a dead bird, and comes back to life, a dog is hit by a car and seems dead, she prays over the dog and he jumps up back to life. Sarah's paralyzed friend Mark, literally gets up and walks out of the doctor's office.

Word spreads very quickly that Sarah is a miracle worker and very soon people come to Sarah's house from all over the community to be healed. But then Sarah gets sick and is taken to the hospital. Can the Healer heal herself? Will God give Sarah another miracle?

The film is so positive and uplifting and some really good actors...Mira Sorvino, Peter Coyote, and Kevin Sorbo.

The true message is Anything is possible if you have faith in God.

(I give the film 4 Stars because the low budget look)

Normally, I am not a fan of religious/Christianity films. I saw the trailer for The Girl Who Believes in Miracles, and it somehow spoke to me. Main story includes little girl who "suddenly" can help veterans and her disabled wheel chair friend, can walk again. We see her and her brother at a lake bringing a dead bird back to life, and she realizes this was "God" asking for "help."

Pastor is skeptic, Doctor is skeptic . While the little girl is " curing miracles", she gets dearly ill, stays in the hospital and grandpa takes her back to the lake for " God to wake her up.'' We find out latter, I didn't have powers, you all can cure your disability's if you close your eyes.

Sure, this was a cheap budget, but the message was really sweet and the supporting cast really worked well together.

This is a definite watch.

I'm not religious at all, but I'm moved to tears! This film is not preachy, but tells a story of profound hope and faith. The girl touched many hearts in the film, and has touched me too.

Is there a way to currently watch this movie outside the U. S?
