These are the brothers, the Johnson brothers. And there are not a few of them. 7 brothers and cousins. The Johnsones live in California, where they have beautiful women and a family business founded by their fathers. The company is called Johnson Brothers and deals in polishing and selling polished old American cars such as Mustang, Chverolet, Lincoln, Pontiac, Cadillac, Oldsmobile, and many more. It's just a great business. Funny family comedy full of nostalgia. Johnson's brothers have to sell 200 cars in one month, or they will lose their business, they will lose their family wealth, their home. In the background, a family story takes place, where the point is that one of Johnson's original brothers, Uncle Jamal, who became estranged from his family and lived his life elsewhere and otherwise, decided to return to his family and put his old family relationships together. All of Johnson must join forces to save the family business.
