Logline
When a burnt-out ad executive uses a mysterious stone that magically unlocks his creative genius to save his agency and win over his dream woman, he faces total ruin when a ruthless rival steals it right before the pitch of his life.
Adapted from the novel The Imagination Stone by Drew Bankston.
Short Synopsis
Tom Parker is a well-meaning but struggling ad agency owner in danger of losing everything—including his business to his ruthless corporate competitor, Corbet Richards. Everything changes when Tom discovers a mysterious, glowing stone on the beach that unlocks his long-lost imagination.
Suddenly overflowing with brilliant ideas, Tom is on the road to saving his agency, inspiring his team, and in the process, falls in love with his single-mother co-worker, Julie, and her young daughter, Doni. But Tom secretly attributes all of his sudden success and happiness to the stone, treating it as a magical crutch he can’t live without.
On the eve of the biggest pitch of his career—a high-profile presentation for Anderson Dairies—Corbet breaks into the office and steals Tom’s briefcase, taking the stone with him. Stripped of his safety net and facing Corbet smirking in the front row, Tom is forced to step up to the podium with no notes, no magic, and everything to lose. To win the account and save his future, Tom must realize that the magic wasn’t in the stone—it was inside him all along.
