Along the way they are side-tracked by odd local characters, they bicker amongst themselves and the van keeps breaking down.

A sudden family crisis sends three siblings off on an adventure in this comedy-drama set in working-class England in 1987. Noel (Timmy Creed) is the oldest of three bothers living with their ailing father. Noel and his siblings -- eleven-year-old Paudie (Paul Courtney), who is quick with a joke and dreams of playing professional football some day, and seven-year-old Scwally (T.J. Griffin), who is shy and fascinated with Star Wars even though he hasn't actually seen the film -- are all having a hard time dealing with the knowledge that their father has only a short time to live. When Dad falls asleep, Noel takes off his watch for safekeeping, but when he gets in a fight the timepiece is broken beyond repair. Though the watch was just a cheap digital model, it was Dad's most prized possession, won at an amusement park in Ballybunion; Noel doesn't want Dad to know what happened, so he "borrows" a bread truck from a neighbor and sets off for Ballybunion to find a replacement. Since he hurt his hand in the fight, Noel brings Paudie along to help him work the gear shift, and Scwally is allowed to tag along so he won't tell on his brothers; the brothers see plenty of sights have some unexpected adventures along the way as they look for the watch and come to terms with their father's illness.
Irish drama following three brothers who set out on a journey to get their ailing father a new watch. When his dad's precious watch gets smashed, 17-year-old Noel (Timmy Creed) is determined to get him a replacement from the arcade machine at the Ballybunion seaside. He borrows an old van and makes his way across the country with his younger brothers, football-crazy joker Paudie (Paul Courtney) and naive 'Star Wars' fanatic Scwally (T.J. Griffin), in tow. Despite their bickering and the problems they encounter on the way, the brothers ultimately grow closer throughout their journey.
