It's both a novel and a film about St. Bernadette Soubirous, who had a series of visions of the Blessed Virgin Mary in Lourdes, France. The novel was by Franz Werfel; the film adaptation was directed by Henry King.

A great movie about the Saint that found the waters of Lourdes, Saint Bernadette Soubirous - starring Jennifer Jones. A really sweet movie.

Although the other answers are correct, Franz Wertzl used this title to reflect the humility of Bernadette in passing on the messages of Our Lady against all mockery and disbelief.
Even the intelligent religious were amazed at the humble simplicity of Bernadette and she confounded the secular intellectuals.
