An angel infant rescues a peasant family from famine through miracles.
Martha pulls the six-winged newborn Angela from the snow after a stranger abandons her. The child's arrival reverses the family's misfortunes: her paralyzed son walks again, her simple-minded son gains sharp intellect, and barren fields yield abundant crops. As the household prospers, the miracles extend beyond survival, punishing the cruel and rewarding the kind, while drawing the family's long-lost third son back toward them.
