Lady of Guadalupe

They aren't kidding about calling this film an uplifting drama! I laughed, I cried, I felt my heart pound out of my chest! This film narrates a beautiful story we've all heard some version of - the miracle of Juan Diego and the Lady of Guadalupe. This movie, on the out set, may appear to be only for Latinos, but, as a non-Latino person, it offers a new insight into the Latino culture and heritage that is not generally available to most people. Today, amid a global pandemic and heightened racial tensions around the world, this film offers a sense of renewed hope and confidence in a brighter tomorrow, even when the night is darkest. This is a movie that every individual, Latino or not, Catholic/Christian or not, Guadalupan believer or not, should watch. It relates a story we have all heard at least once to the experiences of a Latino today and reminds us all to "have a little faith" and believe in tomorrow's rising sun.
