2: Senor de los Milagros
The second programme in this four-part series on the church in Peru investigates the popular religiosity of the Peruvian people.
The Lord of the Miracles procession held in Lima each year is one of the world's largest religious festivals.
After centuries of oppression, devastated by malnutrition, disease and natural disasters, the people find a powerful symbol for their sufferings in the figure of the crucified Lord. But is their devotion purely Christian or a mixture of Indian magic, myth and Catholicism?
Presented and produced by David Peet
(First broadcast on Radio Wales)
