Acts of Godfrey

Synopsis

Alarm salesman Vic Timms heads for a two-day motivational sales course entitled Win Only Win in the hope that the programme will help turn his fortunes around. God - operating under the name Godfrey - decides to manipulate fate and throw Vic into the path of serial man-eater Mary Macdallen. It's a risky strategy and despite Godfrey's divine intervention, love doesn't blossom as expected.
