From the makers of hit drama The Young Pope comes Sky Italia original series The Miracle. Visionary, award winning writer Niccolò Ammaniti (The Crossroads, As God Commands) pens this intense and intriguing tale of politics, mob violence, and the awesome power of belief. After its acclaimed run on Sky Atlantic, The Miracle is set to arrive on DVD and digital courtesy of Acorn Media International.
A fearsome mafia boss, a naïve young Prime Minister, a priest who has lost his path, an ill security general, and a haematologist with an ailing mother – these people from disparate walks of life are tied together by something inexplicable: a miracle. During a raid on a mafia base in an abandoned army swimming pool, a statue of the Virgin Mary is discovered in a pool of blood – not from any violence, but wept from her stone eyes. There is no answer to the mystery, but it has the power to change all of their lives forever.
This secret is capable of sending a man mad, driving a scientist to the very limits of reason and destabilising a country already hanging on a delicate balance. Pragmatism, national interest, faith and science are the paths taken to find an answer to this incomprehensible phenomenon, but the search for answers only uncovers more questions…and the statue’s isn’t the only blood spilled.
The DVD arrives online later this month and is available in some territories using its native title, Il Miraclolo. Various portals online also screen the series, the details for which are below and could be available online a little bit earlier.

Further synopsis: During the incursion in a mob boss’ hideout, Police finds a Virgin Mary plastic sculpture which weeps blood. There is no answer to the mystery, but the power of the enigma will make crazy the people who will get in touch with this event, derailing their lives.
The Miracle is an epic eight-part drama that arrives on DVD on 25 March 2019 and will also be available digitally to download and keep from iTunes, Amazon Prime Video and Google Play from 20 March 2019 courtesy of Acorn Media International.
The Miracle is a series we absolutely recommend and we do hope that it gets further series on the broadcaster. More as we get it.
