An inspired retelling of the Eucharistic Miracle of Bolsena-Orvieto, “Faith Prevails” follows the journey of Fr. Peter of Prague, a priest doubtful of the Real Presence of Jesus in the Eucharist. When the Host begins to bleed during Mass, he must come to terms with his own disbelief while the witnesses of the miracle experience changes in their own faith.
The film is based on the real event of the Eucharistic Miracle of Bolsena-Orvieto, which was was the catalyst for the institution of the Solemnity of the Most Holy Body and Blood of Christ (commonly known as the Feast of Corpus Christi). To read more, visit https://faithprevailsmovie.com
