From the opening scene of a shameless Irish rascal posing as a wealthy Scottish lord, this rollicking tale of love, blackmail and betrayal in 1930s New York takes you captive. Little do the innocent young ladies swooning over Sir Angus MacFarquhar know that his former residence was a Dublin prison. Francis Xavier Dempsey is on the lam with his brother Michael after escaping and accidentally causing an IRA 'safe' house to explode. As cash rained from the sky, the pair grabbed the money and ran... When a farmer hitman forced into one last job tracks the Dempsey brothers down, their lives collide spectactularly against the dazzing and chaotic backdrop of the World's Fair
