SYNOPSIS
Three wise men set out to follow a shining star and find the newborn King — but the journey doesn’t go as planned.
Melchior’s camel breaks down. Caspar’s “StarTracker App” leads them in circles. Balthazar just wants to get there before the incense expires.
Their misadventures take them through deserts, palaces, and chaos until they finally arrive at the humble stable that changes everything.
A fast-moving, family-friendly comedy that blends clever wordplay with heartfelt meaning, The Search for the Missing Magi reminds us that the brightest star often leads through the dust first — and that wisdom means following God’s light, even when we’re lost.
