Description
Own and enjoy your personal copy of Manna from Heaven, a quirky comedic fable about what happens when you get a
"gift from God" (a financial windfall), but many years later you find
out it was a just a loan -- and it's due immediately!
Once upon a time,
many years ago, a working-class neighborhood in Buffalo, NY, is
mysteriously showered with 20 dollar bills. Theresa, a young girl who
everyone thinks is a saint, doesn't have much trouble convincing her
loose-knit "family" that the money is a gift from Heaven. Years later,
Theresa thinks that it is time to pay the money back; trouble is, no one
has the money, no one wants to give it back, and they don't like each
other.
The stellar cast includes: Academy Award winners Shirley Jones, Cloris Leachman, Louise Fletcher, Academy Award nominee Seymour Cassel, Ursula Burton, Shelley Duvall, Jill Eikenberry, Faye Grant, three time Tony nominee Harry Groener, Frank Gorshin, Wendie Malick, and Austin Pendleton.
It's a feel-good family film about finding hope at any age, with comparisons to Waking Ned Devine, Strictly Ballroom, and My Big Fat Greek Wedding. This prize-winning truly independent comedy from Fivesisters Productions was called by NPR "Capra-esque...charming, charming, charming" and The Washington Post "a much-needed reprieve from the angst, irony and mean-spiritedness that is endemic to modern cinema."
