More Than a Miracle

The film opens with the Spanish prince showing his temper and his disdain for arranged marriage. In the palace courtyard, his mother presses him to choose a wife among seven princesses, while he pines for freedom. He rides off to clear his head, unwilling to submit to his father's plans.

After a tumble from his horse on a hillside, a mysterious monk tells the prince he must find a wife. He gives him a donkey and flour, instructing him to gather seven dumplings for a future bride. This odd quest sets the stage for a journey that blends magic with matchmaking.

On the way back, the prince encounters Isabella harvesting vegetables and claims the horse is his. They accuse each other of stealing, and guards pass by, heightening the tension. The prince pushes Isabella into the dirt when she refuses to back down, and she resents his arrogance.

The prince forces his way to Isabella's door, demanding the seven dumplings. She concedes only reluctantly, serving six. The prince feigns death to dramatize his plight, prompting Isabella to doubt her own actions and to enlist her neighbors in resolving the ruse.

Believing the Spaniard is dead, Isabella broadcasts the claim across the village, and the neighbors seize the prince's ring and bury his body in a shallow grave. The prince is buried beneath leaves and branches, unseen while the plan unfolds. This farce ignites Isabella's anger and determination to outwit him.

A night storm arrives and Isabella worries about the prince's fate. She discovers that he is missing from the grave, and an old woman appears, guiding her into the woods. There, a coven of witches debates how to cast love spells and make a man fall in love with you.

In the forest, the witches argue over two methods to compel love, quarreling about which is best. Their conspiratorial chatter and flickering magic add a sense of urgency as Isabella listens for guidance. The atmosphere turns tense as magical forces swirl around her quest.

One witch uses water to locate the prince at a distant nunnery, and Isabella learns where he is. An owl's scream and a gust of wind disrupt the magic, prompting the witches to flee in fear. Isabella steels herself for what comes next.

Among the memories she struggles to recall, Isabella remembers a single spell: placing the tip of the tongue in a keyhole to paralyze a man. She uses the spell to immobilize the prince, gaining control of the situation. This moment marks a turning point in their game of attraction.

The King of Spain decrees that Rodrigo must choose a wife from seven princesses within seven days. A grand gathering is organized, and the prince searches the countryside for Isabella. She enters the cooking team for the event, aided by lingering magical helps, while the action of courtship accelerates.

With help from saints and the lingering witches, Isabella wins Rodrigo's affection during the seven-day function. The prince's resistance softens as he discovers the woman who outsmarted him and stayed true to herself. The couple moves toward marriage, defying expectations.

Isabella and Rodrigo marry, bringing together a union born of misadventure and cunning. The village celebrates the unlikely romance as the stubborn prince becomes a devoted husband.
