Storyline

"Dad's dead weight. And they're both dead tired. But they'll both be dead broke. Unless they can carry him back."

Two brothers take their father into the city for the weekend for a rugby game and a night on the town. However, the old man dies in their hotel and the boys need to smuggle his body back to their farm and make it appear that he died there to satisfy a clause in his will or else they won't inherit the property.
