The Miracle (1988) is a playful comedy that weaves together the struggles of an agronomist working in southern Romania. It’s all about this guy trying to bring life back to those barren sand dunes, which makes for some interesting visuals and unexpected humor. The pacing has a certain charm, a bit slow at times but it gives you room to appreciate the eccentricities of the characters. The practical effects are modest but effective, grounding the film in its rural setting. The performances carry an earnestness that gives the whole thing a warm atmosphere. It’s not your typical laugh-out-loud comedy, more of a quirky exploration of hope and resilience in the face of environmental challenges.
