Synopsis

In a collapsing near future caused by dwindling resources and human ignorance, twelve strangers must unanimously decide within twelve hours which third of humanity dies – or a global lottery will do it for them, for the greater good, of course.

LOTTERY is an emotional rollercoaster ride into human abysses, fears and hopes – naturally in English, with a diverse cast in gender and ethnicity, a crippled AI as comic relief and an unexpected ending…!

The movie is simple in its setting and complex in its subject matter: on the surface, it is about the global problem of overpopulation. At its core, twelve “angry” people negotiate the punishment to which the human species will be condemned for its criminal actions against the Earth, its fellow species and humanity!
