Synopsis: Magnifico is a heartrending film about a Filipino boy whose love and sense of mission changed the lives of those around him. Summary:
The film starts with the birth of Magnifico. It was Gerry, his father, who gave the name Magnifico because he enjoyed watching a magician by that same name. The story actually begins when Magnifico turned nine. His brother, Miong, had lost his scholarship from a university in Manila. This was a heavy blow for the family because Gerry hoped on Miong to save the family from poverty. His grandmother, Magda, figured in a serious accident and had to be hospitalized and discovered that Magda had pancreatic cancer. The income of his father is not enough for the expenses for his grandmother. So he decided to help his grandmother in her preperation for her death. Magnifico made a coffin and prepared the things needed for the funeral of his grandmother. But in the end he will use the coffin and the things he prepared. After his funeral, all the conflict in the film was solve.

Climax: The climax of the movie is when Magnifico was hit by the vehicle and died. Message: Most of the time, this is what we do, we focus on the problem and not in the solution. Trust in the Lord with All your heart, lean not on your own understanding. Our Lord Jesus Christ is bigger that any problem.

Lesson: Love your family. Do everything that is good for your love ones. And also dont use others for your own sake. Even though he is not good in school and belongs to a poor and unfortunate family, Magnifico still have a big heart and a large amount of optimism that enabled him to help not only his family but also the community
