Miracle in Rome

''Milagro en Roma'' (''Miracle in Rome'') is a 1988 Colombian film directed by Lisandro Duque Naranjo and based upon ''The long happy life of Margarito Duarte'', a story by Colombian novelist Gabriel García Márquez. The film follows the story of Margarito Duarte, a man whose daughter died under sudden and inexplicable circumstances. Disinterred years later, her body is discovered in pristine condition, having undergone no apparent decomposition. Unwilling to bury his daughter once again, Margarito struggles with the Vatican to have his daughter canonized as a saint.
== Plot ==
Margarito Duarte is a modest employee of the local court in Filandia, a small Colombian town on the slopes of the Andes. Abandoned by his wife, Margarito is devoted to his only child, Evelia, his seven-year-old daughter. One day, after Evelia’s school day is over, Margarito waits for his daughter at home with a present, an acrobatic flipping monkey. Evelia barely has time to give a kiss and hug her father in gratitude for the present when she dies, suddenly, for no apparent reason.
Twelve years later, Margarito visits the cemetery to exhume the remains of his child in order to prevent them from being placed in a mass grave after the parish has decided to construct a new cemetery. Taking the corpse out of its crypt, Margarito is surprised to find Evelia’s body intact. She looks as if she had just gone to sleep, although the coffin is rotted all around her. This creates a commotion at the cemetery, where people believe that this is a miracle and that the child might be a saint. The event has such profound effect on the town that the local priest invites the bishop of Armenia to determine the religious nature of what has taken place. The bishop is surprised to see not only that Evelia looks in perfect condition but that the girl’s body is even warm. The bishop questions Margarito regarding the girl's religious background and the priest mentions that the toy monkey began to work unexpectedly at the funeral. However, the bishop is skeptical. Not believing there has been a miracle, he orders the girl’s body to be buried again. Also, he specifies that the coffin should be watered to help decompose the body. However, now that Margarito has regained his child, he has no intention of committing a crime by drowning her. At the very moment that the bishop is making his visit, a total solar eclipse takes place. For the people of Filandia, there is not doubt. Turning against the bishop and, indirectly supporting Margarito’s intentions, the crowd screams that the girl is a saint. All working together, they organize an emergency collection, raising a considerable amount of money in order to send father and daughter off to Rome, "for the Holy Father to decide about the miracle."
In Rome, Margarito is welcome by the Colombian ambassador and his secretary, who are fully aware of the political advantages to be gained from facilitating the process of verifying the first Colombian saint. The secretary of the ambassador arranges for Margarito to live as the roommate of Antonio, a fellow Colombian and opera singer who is pursuing a career as a soloist tenor. Margarito moves with Antonio, but rejects the help of the embassy as he does not want to politicize his daughter's sainthood process. Alone, sober and dignified, Margarito takes his daughter's case in front of the Vatican ecclesiastic authorities armed with a letter of recommendation and a large lunch box type suitcase in which he carries his daughter everywhere. Margarito does not have much success, as he faces the well intentioned, but bureaucratic Vatican curia, who recommends the embassy route to promote the launching of the beatification process. Things seem not going anywhere until Margarito meets a bishop willing to personally help him. However, this bishop turns out to be an impostor who swindles Margarito from most of his money.
Antonio has a singing test that will help him to move forward his opera career. While he sings, the windows are broken apparently by the power of his voice. He is congratulated in a presentation not seen since the time of Caruso. Antonio attributes this event to Margarito, who he considers the true saint, admiring his friend's devotion for his daughter, his dignified attitude and his tenacity. Besieged by the secretary of the Colombian embassy and the Italian mortuary authorities, who want to have the body buried, Margarito pleads with his daughter to wake up. The toy monkey begins to play by itself and Evelia resurrects to Margarito's delight. A father's love has prevailed over the presumptuous eternity of death; a miracle has taken place in Rome.
