This beguiling movie follows a $20 bill as it slips from one hand to another. There's no deep point to be made; the device is an excuse to tell half a dozen short stories. But the lightness of the premise gives the film freedom. We glimpse revealing moments in lives, instead of following them to one of those manufactured movie conclusions that pretends everything has been settled.
