Sometimes the truth lies in the things you cannot see. In 1830 a young novice called
Catherine Labouré was granted a vision of the Virgin Mary. Nearly 200 years later Sister Anne
is also waiting for a sign. Which is why she accepts a mission to go to a tiny community on an
island just off the coast of Brittany. Her only companion there is a sceptical chain-smoking
older nun who just wants to be left in peace. On the island she meets Hugo the son of a
devout family who prefers to look for the meaning of life amid the stars Madenn a grandmother
whose daughter was killed in a crash and who finds meaning in routine Isaac Madenn's grandson
an otherworldly teenager who doesn't fit in but who befriends Hugo and Julia a sickly child.
If anyone needs a miracle it is her. But it is not Sister Anne who receives a vision. Instead
it is Isaac who is found on a promontary transfixed unable to utter more than the words 'I
see'. The event soon becomes headline news and the world descends on the small island opening
old wounds and unleashing a chain of events none of them could have foreseen.
