The film may be flawed, but its message is not.

Fray Martin de Porres is an inspirational story about a miracle worker who rises above the evils of discrimination and heals thousands.It stars Aroldo Betancourt, Dad Dager, Muriel Laboriel and Juan Carlos Gardie.Martin de Porres was a lay brother of the Dominican Order who was beatified in 1837 by Pope Gregory XVI and canonized in 1962 by Pope John XXIII. He is the patron saint of mixed-race people and all those seeking interracial harmony.He was noted for work on behalf of the poor, establishing an orphanage and a children's hospital. He maintained an austere lifestyle, which included fasting and abstaining from meat. Among the many miracles attributed to him were those of levitation, bilocation, miraculous knowledge, instantaneous cures, and an ability to communicate with animals.It was directed by Raymundo Calixto Sanchez.This was a very authentic, well acted movie on the life of St. Martin de Porres. Even though it was in Spanish with English subtitles, the acting was done so well that you easily understood what was going on without the subtitles. It is a great portrayal of a famous saint.
