»In Search of a Miracle«
When Thomas Bruckner is diagnosed with a brain tumour, he decides against the doctors' advice to undergo immediate surgery and seeks out self-proclaimed »miracle healers« worldwide.
His personal search for a cure faces reporter Thomas Bruckner with an emotional rollercoaster on which he meets healers, believers and charlatans alike. He always remains a questioning sceptic, yet is hopeful and experiences the inexplicable. Bruckner’s travels take him to an Austrian farmer practicing as an energetic healer, a Voodoo priest in Togo, ghost surgeons in the Philippines, shamans in Bulgaria, Ghanaian exorcists and finally to the world’s most famous medium João de Deus in Brazil.
