Following a stint behind bars, a thief returns to where he buried his loot, only to find that his hiding spot is now a shrine to an unknown saint.

VIBE

A charming, offbeat comedy about faith and fortune. It feels like stumbling upon a hidden gem of a village, where the mundane meets the miraculous with a gentle, humorous touch.
