Synopsis by Matthew Tobey

Producer/director Jed Nolan presents this family-friendly fantasy-comedy about a homeless man with a heart of gold and a little girl in need of a lesson about faith. An amiable and benign hobo, Briefcase makes his living by claiming to be the Tooth Fairy and asking passersby to fund his business. Most folks enjoy Briefcase's playful ruse, but he soon meets his match in the form of a pragmatic young girl named Lisbeth (Katelin Petersen). When Briefcase learns that Lisbeth doesn't believe in things like the Tooth Fairy, he takes it upon himself to show her that the world is full of magic.
