Starting anew after the death of their mother, 9-year-old Anthony is ever practical, while his 7-year-old brother Damian uses imagination, fantasy, and faith to make sense of his confusing world. When a suitcase full of money falls out of the sky at Damian's feet, it sets the boys on the adventure of a lifetime that leads them to realize that true wealth has nothing to do with money.
Boiler plate plot reminicent of an Ealing comedy. If this had been a first-time writers screenplay, then no way would it get made. However as it's Danny "Trainspotting" Boyle!.
