    A grandfather who learns to let go.

    A grandson who learns to love.


    Eighty-five years old, a rebel, a retired boxer, Napoleon Sunshine is unlike other grandparents.

    His ten-year-old grandson, Leonard, is unlike the other boys in his class.

    Together they are unstoppable. Or so they think.
