Will y Hand, quijotescos y disparatados personajes, son dos amigos que, disponiendo de ochenta mil dólares, deciden darle un empleo benéfico y por eso acaban embarcándose en un viaje a países pobres dónde, hasta repartirlo todo, buscarán gente que lo necesite desesperadamente. Prostíbulos, carreras, sobornos, amenazas, lecciones aprendidas... Bajo este manto de aventuras se detecta el enfrentamiento entre la principal potencia mundial y el Tercer Mundo, y el sentimiento de culpa del hombre blanco occidental.
