Synopsis

In Lourdes as anywhere else and whether it is holly water, rosaries, Chirst crosses or relics locked in their precious reliquaries, everything is trade at high price, sometimes clandestinaly. Wheter those objects are real...or forgery ! Believers pay for every sides of their faith. Nothing escape the faith trade anymore. We organise auctions, trade fairs the size of Foire de Paris, while some people pay thousands of euros to go to holly places.
