Most people only dream about it, but it actually happens to the two characters – an elderly couple – of Prah: they hit the jackpot on the lottery. The comedy is set on the afternoon when the couple hears the news. In this special life situation reactions are also special.
Because day-dreaming comes easy but being glad about something is much harder. When the solution – the 600 million – is in their hands, all the nightmares, every suspicion, all the misery of their marriage and their half-lived life pour upon them. First, they don’t have any idea what to do and while they are thinking, planning, just to be on the safe side, they hide the winner lottery coupon into an old box labelled KAKAO PRAH – means “cacao powder” – which is from a summer holiday in “Yugoslavia”…
