在这部迪恩·斯潘雷喜剧/剧情片中,电影发生在爱德华时代的英国。老费斯克(Peter O'Toole)是个脾气古怪的老头，他的小儿子在战争中去世了，妻子由于哀痛也在不久去世，风烛残年的Fisk老人对他的大儿子(Jeremy Northam)似乎没感情没心肝，然而当他们在一个看似平常的星期四去听了一个印度人关于灵魂转世的讲演，并且遇到了Dean Spanley之后，他们经历了一趟奇异的旅程，并最终打开了这位老人的心结。
Each Thursday, a man approaching middle age calls upon his father, aged, caustic, nihilistic, and emotionally distant, perhaps from the loss of a son in the Boer War and his wife soon after. On this day, the son suggests they attend a visiting guru's lecture on the transmigration of souls. There they chat with a vicar and a soldier of fortune; dinner follows. Over glasses of Hungarian Tokay, the vicar, Dean Spanley, tells a story of friendship, freedom, and reincarnation. In what earthly way could this tale connect father and son?
