My First Miracle

Great acting and Cinematography!!! Which means, great directing! It was honest and heartwarming and unlike any indie film about Christmas that I've seen. I haven't been able to get the movie or characters out of my mind.

I don't understand why this movie has such a low rating. The story is sweet and innocent. A chance encounter brings the lives of a homeless man, a homeless teen, and a teen dying of cancer together in a story of hope and redemption.

The boy, Brandon, is homeless because he attacked his foster father to keep him from harming his little sister. He feel hopeless and afraid because of what he's done. He's on the run, but desperate to get back to his sister.

Angelica, the girl with cancer is waiting for a bone marrow donor. She is in treatment which stops when her exhausted father loses his job for falling asleep one too many times. Her family's once strong faith is wavering and the click is ticking.

Charlie, the homeless man, is a veteran who drinks to numb the pain and suffering of who he was, what he's experienced, and what he lost. He and Brandon look out for each other, and their relationship reminds us that just because someone is different from us, does not mean anyone is discounted in God's eyes.

Angelica and Brandon have several chance meetings, but those watching will understand nothing really happens by chance. They start to fall for each other, but there story seems hopeless as time starts running out for. Angelica.

The ending may be predictable, but it blew me away. Miracles happen every day, we just don't often watch for them. I highly recommend this movie.

This movie is the one where everyone who worked on creating such a wonderful movie of love and hope. That miracles do happen, only wish the miracles happened for anyone who feels hopeless. Thank you for making this possible! James Welch Henderson, Arkansas 3/16/2021
