Jason se domníval, že jeho dědictvím bude spousta peněz. Leč dostalo se mu obrovského překvapení… Film podle bestselleru „The Ultimate Gift“ od Jima Stovalla. Tento příběh vysílá odrostlé důvěřivé dítě Jasona Stevense na dlouhou cestu poznání, kdy musí nalézt odpověď na jednu zásadní otázku: jaký je vztah mezi bohatstvím a štěstím?

Ale Red mu místo toho zanechal něco úplně jiného. Připravil pro něj plán, skutečnou zkoušku životem. A sice 12 úkolů, kterým Red říká „dárky“. Každý z nich Jasona svérázným způsobem zkouší a všechny dohromady ho změní navždy.
