A whimsical, spiritually-inflected family drama about two grieving brothers navigating morality, faith, and materialism through the magical realism of sudden wealth.

Two boys, still grieving the death of their mother, find themselves the unwitting benefactors of a bag of bank robbery loot in the week before the United Kingdom switches its official currency to the Euro. What's a kid to do?
