Religious figure appears to move mouth during mass in Mexico City

A video captured during a religious service at the Parroquia de la Asunción Sagrario Metropolitano in Mexico City's Historic Center has gone viral, sparking debate on social media. The footage appears to show a religious figure of the Ánima Sola, which represents souls in purgatory, moving its mouth while a woman was reciting praises.

The video has generated conflicting interpretations among viewers on platforms like X. Some users suggest the movement could be a supernatural manifestation or a miracle, while others argue it is likely an optical illusion caused by reflections on the glass display case protecting the figure. No official explanation for the phenomenon has been confirmed.
