In the tiny Irish village of Tully More, Ned Devine wins the lottery but dies of shock. His neighbours, Jackie and Michael, discover his body and the winning ticket. To keep the money from leaving the village, they hatch a plan to claim the prize themselves, involving the entire town in their scheme. Hilarity and complications ensue as they try to fool the lottery inspector.
