Mannequin: On the Move
Director: Stewart Raffill
Actors: Kristy Swanson, William Ragsdale, Meshach Taylor
PlotIn a long-lost kingdom, a young and beautiful peasant girl named Jessie is put under a spell by an evil sorcerer, turning her into a mannequin for 1,000 years. As the story begins, she is discovered in the present day by a department store employee named Jason. The magic necklace adorning her breaks the spell temporarily, allowing Jessie to come to life anytime she's in Jason's presence. Together, they navigate modern urban life and unravel the enchantment. Jason and Jessie develop a connection as Jason helps her learn about the contemporary world.
As love blossoms between Jason and Jessie, they must also guard against those who seek to exploit Jessie's secret. All the while, the evil sorcerer from Jessie’s past—who is still a threat in the present day—resurfaces and aims to reclaim her power. With assistance from Jason’s quirky co-worker Hollywood Montrose and other allies, Jason and Jessie seek to break the curse forever. The journey is filled with comedic encounters, heartfelt moments, and a race against time to secure Jessie's freedom and ensure their future together.
