Anikó and Laci lived in deep poverty in a small town in Hungary until they won the lottery in 2013. Suddenly, their dreams of luxury become a reality as they move into a new house with a pool and a garden and hire a driver. For Anikó, who suffers from panic disorder and almost never left her flat for 25 years, the jackpot provides a newfound sense of power and purpose. She sees it as an opportunity to invest and start her own business, while Laci simply wants to enjoy the luxury of not working and travel the world. But as they adjust to their new life, their relationship becomes strained. Laci's past struggles with alcoholism resurface, threatening to tear them apart. This intimate documentary follows their journey as they navigate the ups and downs of their newfound wealth and try to find the balance in their relationship. Will they be able to overcome the obstacles that threaten to tear them apart?
