The film tells the story through the eyes of a young boy who has a unique experience of Jesus' presence during his first Holy Communion. The power of prayer, the issue of alcoholism in a Christian family, the mother's love and determination to save the family, and the father's conversion provide the basis for a powerful story. Most of the footage was shot in a small forgotten village in the middle of the beautiful Slovak mountains in the village of Velké Borové.

In 1917, outside the parish of Fátima, Portugal, a 10-year-old girl and her two younger cousins witness multiple visitations of the Virgin Mary, who tells them that only prayer and suffering will bring an end to World War I. As secularist government officials and Church leaders try to force the children to recant their story, word of the sighting spreads across the country, inspiring religious pilgrims to flock to the site in hopes of witnessing a miracle..
