Osborne as Isaac Watson; John Rhys-Davies as Himself. Internet sleuth (or "webtective")
Dot Conner receives a cryptic phone call from her father on the eve of her
first day of high school, plunging her into an adventure she never expected to
face.
As Dot navigates the rocky start of her high school life, she uncovers
the first of many clues her father has left behind, setting her on an urban
treasure hunt with friends Makayla and Alex. Their quest leads them through the
city, crossing paths with dangerous Russian thugs as they go. What begins as a
search for her father quickly unravels into a much larger mystery, revealing
his deep involvement in the world of espionage. Amid the chaos, Dot discovers
the truth of Philippians 4:13, proving that even in the darkest times, faith
can light the way.
My
Opinion: I enjoyed the plot, starting at high school, to kids who are
bullies, to her podcast as a webtective, and going on an adventure to find her
dad with her friends, following the cryptic clues along the way. While Dot begins the film by searching for ways she
might take control of her situation, she ends with an understanding that God is
in control, as well as a deeper conviction that He provides the strength we need
to endure our circumstances.
