Texto: 

From 23rd to 28th September, 2008 the VI Mostra de Cinema e Religião "Miracle and Cure" proposes a close look at the characteristics of religious practices which alleviate human suffering answering to unexpected aspects of destiny as when miracle or cure rise above the normal laws of science. The interrelation between the mind and the human capacity to overcome illness proved by Neurology here refers back to the subject "Miracle and Cure". Seventeen films have already been chosen including works from Brazil, Bangladesh, Italy, France, Iran and other countries. The program combines films of established directors as well as new ones whose works are under this year's theme. We are happy to share with you that international film festivals addressed us asking for films produced in Brazil presented in our previous exhibitions. In January, as a result of it, Brazilian films were represented in the Dhaka International Film Festival, Bangladesh with "O outro lado do Céu" ; and in April in Italy, the San Geminiano Cinema Festival showed "Cança das Cabaças", 2006, directed by Kiko Dinucci and "Sapucaia", 2007, directed by Vitor Menezes and Sílvia Bigarelli.
