Sentenced to die, Juan is plunged into a boiling vat of oil, he emerges unscathed. His miraculous survival leads to a mass conversion of spectators to Christianity.

Juan heals a young child from a fatal injury, he then becomes inundated by the afflicted, much to the consternation of the Mexican Monastery where he works.

The Monastery Vicar unable to stop Juan’s growing celebrity and healings derides him as a proxy of the devil, and forces him to leave the sanctuary.

Happening upon a small Mexican village under siege, Juan rescues a terrified young mother, Rosita, and her wounded son, Paolo, from a brutal Drug Cartel’s total annihilation.

Caught in the middle trying to protect Rosita and a village they take refuge in, Juan is haunted by memories of past failures, but an encounter with the child he saved renews his confidence.

To atone for past misgivings he returns to the village and tries to rally the villagers to take a stand, but is mortally wounded and left for dead by the cartel.

Miraculously he recovers and confronts the cartel and its leader, Antonio (el terrible) Camacho. Confronting the fatally wounded Juan alive kindles overwhelming fear in the cartel members realizing they are facing someone more than a man; most flee, except Antonio who stays to finish him. However, Antonio is stabbed by a jealous husband that lost his wife to the cartel, and in spite of Juan’s efforts to save him, the unrepentant Antonio Camacho loses his life.

Juan’s legend grows, Mexicans throughout the land rally together using Juan’s inspiration to take a stand against the powerful drug cartels, and corrupt authorities, to reverse the tide of violence and injustice.
