Plot

In the heartland of America, a charismatic charlatan named Jonas Nightengale, masquerading as a Christian faith healer, weaves a web of deceit with his captivating revival meetings. Aided by his loyal friend and manager, Jane, Jonas conducts theatrical 'miracles,' duping the innocent into believing his divine powers. His plans take an unexpected detour when a truck in his entourage breaks down in Rustwater, a drought-stricken town gasping for rain and a miracle to save their withering crops. Seizing the opportunity, Jonas decides to stage a revival in Rustwater, hoping to convert their desperation into his profit. However, he underestimates the town's stoic sheriff, Will Braverman, a man determined to protect his people from falling prey to this cunning imposter. Simultaneously, Jonas finds himself drawn towards Marva, a local waitress, whose resilient persona poses a challenge he can't resist. Meanwhile, a young disabled boy, Boyd, clings to his faith in Jonas, hoping to walk again. As Jonas navigates the thin line between deception and faith, the events that unravel in Rustwater invite him to question his own convictions and face the doubts that lurk in his heart. With every leap of faith, the story unfolds a riveting tale of hope, skepticism, and the power of belief, stirring a whirlwind of emotions in this small town.
