Miracles from Heaven / Columbia Pictures presents ; in association with Affirm Films ; a Roth Films/T.D. Jakes/Franklin Entertainment production ; screenplay by Randy Brown ; produced by Joe Roth, T.D. Jakes, DeVon Franklin ; directed by Patricia Riggen.
Based on the incredible true story of the Beam family. When Christy discovers her ten-year-old daughter Anna has a rare, incurable disease, she becomes a ferocious advocate for her daughter's healing as she searches for a solution. After Anna has a freak accident and falls three stories, a miracle unfolds in the wake of her dramatic rescue that leaves medical specialists mystified, her family restored and their community inspired.
"The sweet sincerity of Miracles From Heaven makes it hard to dislike."--New York Post.
"Riggen effectively creates a sense of how intimidating hospitals and medical procedures are for a child, often shooting from Anna's perspective. The emphasis on Anna and Christy's experience of these trials is a smart choice."--Los Angeles Times.
"The harrowing medical crisis that drives the family story gives it the nonreligious urgency to preach beyond the choir. So too does Jennifer Garner's down-to-earth lead performance."--Hollywood Reporter.
