The Miracle Collectors
About the miracles of life – big and small
In Liguria, sociology student Paula is keen to put the finishing touches to her doctoral thesis on miracles. Miracles, as it turns out, are rather difficult to grasp, scientifically speaking. But soon help arrives in the form of Benedict, a priest from a Marian pilgrimage site in Bavaria. Miracles are his bread and butter – but does he believe in them?
Together they examine Paula’s collection of miracles and set off on a journey. They encounter a curator of miracles in Avignon, a mathematics professor in Bern, a hermit in the Swiss mountains, a psychologist, and a pair of astronomers, all of whom help them, finally, to grasp the phenomenon of miracles.
