The story

Benny, Monk and Matthew are three small-time crooks trying to escape a police dragnet in New York City. After hiding in a church, they disguise themselves as ministers and find shelter in an abandoned Bowery mission. The police mistake them for real ministers sent to restore the soup kitchen, and the men must decide whether to stay, steal the mission money and run or change their lives.
