Xavier Giannoli’s The Apparition is a story of a reporter investigating a young French woman who claims to have seen the Virgin Mary. Combining a mystery plot involving the Catholic Church with the continent-hopping story of a traumatised war journalist seeking the truth, the result is an intriguing and suspenseful drama with a stand-out performance from Vincent Lindon (The Measure of a Man).
