Henry Poole regresa al barrio Los Ángeles donde se crió con el objetivo de hallar algo de paz y soledad. Sin embargo el retiro tranquilo y voluntario de Henry se ve interrumpido por un trío de vecinas: Esperanza, una cotilla con buenas intenciones; Millie, una niña de ocho años y su madre Dawn, una joven divorciada. Cuando Esperanza descubre una mancha en la fachada de la casa de Henry se queda fascinada con la posibilidad de que ésta posea poderes milagrosos y empieza a organizar visitas al "lugar sagrado". Inspirados por sus convicciones, los fieles que se congregan ante la mancha comienzan a reportar unos sucesos inexplicables que ellos atribuyen al poder maravilloso de la pared. (Filmax)

For a sympathetic misanthrope, a life skeptic who prioritizes reason over emotions, and a stubborn atheist, this film represents the same symbol as a concentration camp for human rights defenders. With eyes widened in horror, I watched the influx of positive energy, love, and divine grace. I felt like a cowboy who, after a tiresome anabasis in the Midwest while herding cattle, comes to Kolaloka bar instead of the Trigger Whiskey Saloon, where I was served by members of the Salvation Army and preached to about God's grace. And it could have been worse. The more luck, love, and miracles condensed on the screen, the stronger the feeling grew in me that a dance festival was taking place on my testicles and Hannibal Lecter was toying with the rest of my body. With the closing credits, I felt relief like a traveler in the Sahara when they see an oasis in the distance. Overall impression: 25% for the acting.
