The 2017 Mexican drama described, focusing on a woman seeking a miracle or divine intervention due to a difficult life, is not widely recognized under the title "Something Divine" (or "Algo Divino") as a film directed by Fernando Bonilla. While Fernando Bonilla is a prominent Mexican actor and theater director, his filmography does not list a 2017 drama with this title or plot that he directed. He is well-known for his extensive acting career in cinema and television, as well as directing numerous theatrical productions, such as "Almacenados" and "A ocho columnas".

Instead, a documentary titled "Something Divine," directed by Thomas Essig, was released in 2024. This film follows the spiritual journey of Ray "Raghunath" Cappo, a former hardcore punk musician, during a pilgrimage to India, exploring themes of transformation and spirituality. While this film does involve a search for the divine, it is a documentary, not a Mexican drama, and was released later than 2017. Another film, the Mexican comedy "Divina Seรฑal" (Divine Intervention), directed by Pitipol Ybarra and released in 2024, features mobsters experiencing what they perceive as divine intervention, but it does not align with the specific plot of a woman burdened by life seeking a miracle in 2017.

Therefore, the premise of the question, attributing a 2017 Mexican drama called "Something Divine" with that specific plot and director Fernando Bonilla, appears to be based on incorrect information. Fernando Bonilla's contributions to Mexican entertainment are significant, primarily as an actor in films like "Lost in the Night" and "Northern Skies Over Empty Space," and as a director in the theater world.
