Can anyone help me identify a Spanish-language film that came out about 20 years ago about a young boy who dies and is found to be “incorruptible”? Thanks!

Are you thinking of [Miracle in Rome](http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0095639/), in which a man exhumes his daughter’s body and, finding it perfectly preserved, carries it around Rome in a case trying to get someone to acknowledge the miracle?
