Such Miracles Do Happen
SYNOPSIS
SINOPSE
To the surprise of the village residents, all of a sudden, the stone figure of Virgin Mary starts moving, leaves the chapel and begins to walk ahead. Soon, it is joined by other animated sculptures. Miracles do happen and they fascinate the most a little boneless girl. She is equally in awe of the fact that a spider has eight legs and that larvae of the moth move without any legs at all! This frame-by-frame animation captivates the viewer with the world made of images, plasticine and lace. Yet again, Barbara Rupik created an animation in which ugliness is attractive and otherness is mysterious and magical.
