Some days luck smiles on you. On others, it seems to play hide and seek. The luck of a fraudster convinced he was born to be a star, a nymphomaniac who opened her legs as soon as she got her first period and is yet to close them, a third-rate smuggler who divides his nights between waves and wine, a lift engineer torn between nostalgia and conformity. This collection of characters take us on a journey where luck, whether good or bad, tips the balance until they meet their eventual fates.
