Italian screen favorite Paolo Villagio returns to the screen in this comedy as a suicidal man who discovers that he has won the lottery after his latest attempt to extinguish his life has failed. Unfortunately, the ticket he needs to redeem his prize is hidden in an old typewriter which was auctioned off with his other possessions while he was in the hospital. He gets into all kinds of amusing scrapes as he frantically attempts to buy, beg, borrow or steal his typwriter back, wreaking havoc in the lives of all around him. ~ Clarke Fountain, Rovi
