    A philosophical drama with Queer elements

    Miracle Child/Blessed Boys is billed as a Queer/LGBT drama centred on a hidden/not acknowledged romantic feelings between the two best friends, however, by the end of the movie it comes to light that the above portrayal is a mere personal perception/wish of one of the characters, as are the "miraculous" powers of the protagonist's sister are perceived by a flock of believers regardless of its truth.

    Pace of the movie is extremely slow at times and repetition of the scenes are often! Mostly without any major development in the storyline!

    Peculiarity of the plot makes this movie worthy of international film festivals!? Though it is misleading to portray this film as a Gay love story.
