In this broad comedy from Italy, five buddies -- the owner of a cafe (Carlo Buccirosso), his best friend (Emilio Solfrizzi), a mama's boy schoolteacher (Gennaro Nunziante), a one-time professional soccer player (Claudio Amendola), and a bus driver (Alessandro Di Carlo) -- buy lottery tickets as a group, assuming that the more tickets they buy, the better their chances of winning, with the group sharing the prize if they hit the number. However, when their lucky day finally arrives and they have the right number for a $43 million jackpot, it's discovered that someone has pocketed the winning ticket and plans to keep the money for himself.
