About This Movie

By Miracle, released in 2010, explores heavy themes like faith and the nuances of family ties, all wrapped in a somber atmosphere. The pacing is slow, almost meditative, which really mirrors the internal struggles of Aliki and Andreas as they deal with the heartache of infertility. The performances feel raw and real, especially Aliki’s deep dive into her religious fervor as a coping mechanism. It’s interesting how the film presents isolation, yet there’s this palpable yearning for connection that lingers throughout. Practical effects are minimal, focusing instead on the emotional weight of each scene. You can sense the characters' desperation and hope, making it distinctively poignant in its approach to such a personal journey.

The film’s exploration of faith feels very personal. · Characters are deeply layered, making you reflect on their choices. · Pacing might not suit everyone, but it enhances the tone.
