Lotto

Philipp wishes to give his terminally ill father Walter one last treat. To cheer him up and coax him out of his hospital bed, Philipp tells a white lie. He pretends that his father has won the lottery.

Upon hearing such news Walter wants to make the most of his luck in his final days. He wants to pay off his debts and give his children and friends all the things he hasn’t been able to give them. Now Philipp, with the help of his sister and Walter’s friends,  has to make his father believe that the made-up millions are really there and make sure the hoax is not revealed.
