In this playful comedy that’s part adventure tale, part musical, and completely entertaining, real-life 1920s evangelist Sister Aimee disappears right before her followers’ eyes. Or did she? What looks like a vanishing act is, in reality, a wily plot to abscond with her lover. But what was shiny and new in the U.S. loses its luster in Mexico, and now Aimee has to get back to Los Angeles, where her disciples and the authorities are searching for her. — Catherine Champion
