Images of Faith Movie Review 1993

Interviews, Spanish music, and historical facts intertwine to document the early Puerto Rican settlers' devotion to the saints. Because the mountain settlers could not travel to nearby churches, they manifested their love for the saints through prayers to wooden carvings. Video journey exploring the art of Santos carving begins in Puerto Rico's Hormigueros where the Shrine of Our Lady of Monserrat is located.
