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.
