Alfred Mullanet, an unlucky player who lives on his wife's income, becomes in a few moments the object of interest of two thugs, Kruger and Mister K.

VIBE

This feels like a delightfully off-kilter journey into the absurd. It's a whimsical, darkly comedic caper where an unlucky soul finds himself swept into increasingly bizarre circumstances. Expect quirky characters and a lighthearted, yet propulsive, unfolding of fate.
