An angel named Gabriel (Keanu Reeves) tries to help a man who is struggling to make ends meet in Los Angeles (Aziz Ansari), by swapping his life with a super wealthy man, Jeff (Seth Rogen) in order to show him that wealth won’t solve all his problems. However, all doesn’t go according to plan when Ansari’s character actually loves the life. As punishment, Gabriel loses his wings and is sentenced to being a human, along with Jeff, who now lives without means as Arj had before.
