What is a Wonder? It’s a fiction we use to comfort ourselves. Nurse Wright is called to a remote Irish village to watch a girl who doesn’t eat. She’s a Wonder.
Why did her parents promise not to feed her? Where is the faith of an 11-year-old seemingly from?
Nurse Wright tells herself a story that it’s easier that her husband is dead. The village priest and the local doctor tell themselves a girl really hasn’t eaten in four months. The girl’s parents tell themselves it’s real and it’s all for the best. The local journalist tells himself his family wouldn’t have starved if he hadn’t left home.
But how thick a shield can fiction lay over a life? Can a story be told well enough to save one?
With opening and closing sequences wonderfully wound in artifice and myth making, this is a film that holds a more meta commentary on filmmaking and it’s abilities than anything I’ve seen in years.
