El Pintor de los Milagros

Directed by

Alex Hidalgo

After an accident leaves his daughter in a coma, Francisco, a seasoned journalist, tries to rebuild his life by accepting a seemingly minor assignment: uncovering the origins of the ancient mural of the Black Christ, venerated by millions. His search leads him to Santiago, who reveals the untold story of the image's mysterious creator: a young man enslaved in 17th-century Peru, known only as "The Painter." Amid discrimination and suffering, the young man transforms his pain into an extraordinary work: a Black Christ that, over the centuries, would become the most important symbol of faith in our nation and one of the most venerated in the world. As he reconstructs this story of hope, resilience, and redemption, Francisco embarks on a journey that will forever change his understanding of faith and restore his belief that miracles are still possible.
