The light news winner was "Misterios de la Fe" ("Mysteries of the Faith") series, which explored unexplained phenomena and occurrences in the Catholic Church, including segments on the bodies of saints that seem to be escaping corporeal decay, apparitions of the Virgin Mary and the Holy Shroud. Part of the history of the Holy Shroud still remains unknown, but plausible explanations for the gaps in its chronology have also been put forward. While the imprints of the bodies (torso, thighs, and s o on) are in part aleatory, they also recall primitive rock paintings or the Holy Shroud, or even certain abbreviations by Matisse or Chagall. |
