In the heart of Portugal, amidst rolling hills and quaint villages where time ticks just a tad slower, lies Fatima—a place destined to be catapulted from pastoral obscurity to celestial fame. Its 1917, a world at war and a country teetering on the brink of political upheaval, when suddenly, three young shepherds claim to have seen something extraordinary. Not just any extraordinary, but a luminous lady brighter than the sun herself, right in the middle of their everyday sheep-herding duties. It’s a tale blending the divine with the ordinary, where miracles meet mud, and faith clashes with skepticism. Buckle up, because this isn’t just history—it’s a heavenly spectacle that has left the world pondering ever since.
