On Netflix
A metaphysical coming-of-age drama about a child messiah figure grappling with miraculous powers and cosmic destiny in a small Mexican town.
After surviving a freak accident, Jodie, a twelve-year-old boy from Santa Rosalía, Baja California Sur, discovers that he has Jesus-like powers: He can turn water into wine, make the crippled walk, and perhaps even raise the dead. How will he deal with his destiny and lead the world through a conflict that’s been thousands of years in the making?
