At just 15 years old\, Paco suddenly finds himself the winner of one of the largest lottery jackpots ever. But more money means more problems\, more betrayals\, and Paco finds that he is no longer sure which world he belongs in. He goes through the highest highs and the lowest lows as he realizes the only person he trusts isn't really there. The play cleverly pierces the veil between this world and the next as Paco discovers the true power of his late father's love.
