Grace Unplugged (2013)

Grace Unplugged unfolds the compelling journey of Grace Rose Trey (Amanda “AJ” Michalka), a prodigiously talented 18-year-old Christian singer and songwriter. Set in a tranquil small town in Alabama, Grace is the unpolished gem of Freedom Community Chapel, serenading the congregation with her enchanting voice each Sunday. She shares the spotlight with her father, Johnny Trey (James Denton), a former rock sensation turned church music director, who once tasted the intoxicating allure of fame with a Billboard chart-topping single. The echoes of Johnny's past resonate in Grace’s heart, igniting an insatiable longing for the limelight. Her thirst for success far surpasses the boundaries of their small town church and, without warning, she finds herself on a one-way trip to the City of Angels, chasing a record deal. With the ruthless guidance of Johnny's former manager and producer, Frank "Mossy" Mostin (Kevin Pollak), she stands on the precipice of pop superstardom, teetering between her deeply rooted faith and a long-suppressed dream. In the glittering world of Hollywood, Grace wavers on the brink of losing her spiritual compass. She disconnects from her parents and seems ready to surrender her Christian beliefs and music to seize her dreams of stardom. But as she navigates the treacherous path to fame, she discovers that the road to success demands a steep price. With her faith teetering, Grace faces a profound question: will the lure of fame lead her to renounce her faith, or will her trials guide her to a deeper understanding of it? In this mesmerizing tale of faith and ambition, Grace Unplugged explores the test of spiritual integrity in the face of overwhelming temptation. It is a powerful testament that even when it seems like God has turned away, He might just be getting started.
