Story of an Aztec living during the Spanish conquest of Mexico. He astounds the Bishop of Mexico City and the proud Spaniards by declaring that the Blessed Virgin Mary appeared to him and gave him a message indicating that she would help his people. Challenged for proof of his story, he returns with an exquisite drawing of the Lady from Heaven painted on his sack-like cloak. This painting still hangs in the Basilica of Our Lady of Guadalupe in Mexico City.
