Duration90min.

Peter is a priest in a small parish in New Zealand and wants to marry his Samoan partner Jason. But the Anglican Church does not allow for the blessing of a homosexual couple. Friends and family start a support campaign. And then Jason's non-binary nephew Billy from Australia comes to the rescue and declares himself to be God's messenger for the wedding. When the ‘forbidden wedding’ becomes a worldwide media topic, the bishop demands Peter's resignation. Now only a miracle can help! Director Paul Oremland wrote gay film history in 1998 with his raw boxer film ‘Like It Is’. His new film ‘Mysterious Ways’ is a stirring drama of love and faith that counters church hierarchies and repression against queer people with a passionate message: Listen to what your hearts are telling you!
