Vision Films has announced the US theatrical release of Lady of Guadalupe. The film’s release coincides with the annual feast of Our Lady of Guadalupe.
The film directed by Pedro Brenner and produced by Robert Hymers and Pinnacle Entertainment, depicts the religious and cultural icon and is the first modern production of her story.
It will open in American Cinemas in Houston and Ft. Worth, TX and in Galaxy Theatres in North Las Vegas, NV and The Colony, TX beginning Friday, December 11. The timing coincides with the annual Feast of Our Lady of Guadalupe, traditionally celebrated on December 12.
Lady of Guadalupe is a moving religious discovery juxtaposing folklore and present day. Historically significant recreations are used to illustrate the origin of her prevalent and powerful symbolism of Mexican identity and faith.
When a young and ambitious reporter (Guillermo Iván) is assigned an article on faith, he finds himself enmeshed in the legend of Juan Diego and Our Lady of Guadalupe. Skeptical of miracles and the importance of modern-day Christianity, the reporter’s investigation takes him from cynic to true believer as his personal limits are tested.
