This is a satirical comedy. A young Frenchman unexpectedly for himself wins the main prize of many millions of the national French lottery. To avoid the unnecessary publicity he names himself for the press as the citizen of the provincial town which he has by chance seen on the map. In this very town, where there are no many citizens and everybody knows each other, the news that someone of the compatriots - is a lottery millionaire, has just an exploding effect.
