Plot

In the small town of Rivercity, Texas, Mangus Spedgewick, a high school senior, is on a mission. His heart is set on one dream, one family tradition that he yearns to uphold - to embody Jesus in his school's annual play, the "Jesus Christ Spectacular", a humble counterpart to the famous "Jesus Christ Superstar". However, fate has an unexpected twist in store. A shocking accident leaves Mangus robbed of his legs, and his dreams seemingly shattered. Shipped off to live with his estranged mother in a trailer park, Mangus's life takes an unconventional turn. Amidst the unfamiliarity, he forms an unlikely bond with a quasi-sibling, adding a dash of loyalty and camaraderie to his challenging journey. As Mangus grapples with his new reality, an extraordinary sequence of events unfolds, throwing him into the limelight again. The chance to reclaim his dream role arises, but it won't come easy. Every dream has a price, and for Mangus, it means embarking on a hard-fought journey, a road trip that will push him to his limits and breaking the law more than once. With unwavering determination, he sets out to become the town's first differently-abled Jesus, igniting a series of adventures that may also hold the key to reunite his fragmented family. "Mangus!" is a heartwarming tale of resilience, dreams, and the unconventional paths we often have to tread to find our destiny. It's an uplifting journey that proves that life's greatest challenges can often lead to its most extraordinary triumphs.
