Review of Stigmata (2009) by Mohanraj N — 24 Aug 2009
The movie is loosely based on the discovery of the Gospel of Thomas, a document which the Vatican and most other Christians have declared as being the product of a heretical Gnostic group.
The film is about an atheist Pittsburgh hairdresser who exhibits true stigmata, and a Father (a former scientist) investigating miracles for the Vatican. He discovers that the stigmata stems from the spirit of Father Paulo Alameida, who was excommunicated for his discovery of a lost Gospel challenging the very foundations of Catholicism by suggesting that Jesus Christ did not want churches built to worship God.
