'Welcome to Dickens Court. Old-fashioned battler Bob Jones has lost his job. His neighbour Eugene just bought a mail-order bride but is now in debt to the Russian mafia, and the snobs across the road are desperate to buy a trendy new beachfront apartment. When they discover the grand prize in the Christmas Lights Competition can solve their respective money problems, the neighbourhood goes to war.' Source: www.laboite.com.au/ (Sighted 15/10/2007).
