Filmed primarily at the famous shrine in Bosnia-Herzegovina, The Triumph investigates the phenomena which have attracted some 40 million people to Medjugorje since 1981 and includes a portrait of Mirjana, one of the original children of Medjugorje.

More than 40,000 Irish people continue to travel to Medjugorje annually.
