SYNOPSIS:

Srećko (Lucky) lives in a rented apartment located right above a local café in Belgrade. He regularly buys lottery tickets with the same number-combination, hoping to win the highest prize one day. But, despite his name, his life-circumstances are all but lucky.

Still, the local lottery-seller Višnja is terribly in love with him and never gives up on the idea that his name will provide a positive effect somehow. Srećko, of course, doesn’t even know this. As it turned out, Srećko does win the Jackpot – 4.000.000 euros! However, he loses the winning-ticket, that ends up in the hands of Žile and Sale, two owners of the café near his flat.

Knowing that the ticket isn’t really theirs, Žile and Sale run away to Corfu, hoping to find an inspiration for future businesses there. Many others involved in the case in various controversial ways, including Srećko and Višnja, follow them to Greece, hoping to find whatever they might be looking for.
