The film depicts the family life of a Pastor beloved of his people, his simple faith in God through prayer, and his belief in God's power of healing a dying child when the doctor has given up all hope. The climax comes when his wife meets with an accident and is told it is doubtful whether she will walk again. He vows to pray for her recovery until his prayer is answered. It is, his wife walks, but only across the room, when she sinks in her iiusband's arms and dies. "A sincere and impressive film. The acting is good, and the technical presentation first rate. This is a beautiful piece of work which, however, raises more questions than it solves. The one responsible should see the film before attempting to show it for religious purposes. Adults and adolescents. For general use, but specially suitable for discussion groups, or to precede an address on prayer. Highly recommended." British film Inst, CARNIVAL IN FLANDERS.
