Synopsis:
“A 24 hour love story between a Czech prostitute called Lucky and a homeless traveller named Rich.”
When Lucky bangs into Rich, a sick looking New Zealand bum late one night on a train in Prague, the connection is instant and obvious; except she doesn’t want to have anything to do with him. But there is something irrepressible about Rich and he won’t take no for an answer. When Lucky tries to leave she is rounded up by Scrap; Rich’s 3-legged dog, and she and Rich end up fighting, laughing and falling in love all over this ancient city.
After a bad falling out, Lucky storms off to the red light district and buys a gun; we don’t know why. Eventually reunited, they buy flash threads from a charity shop (he has money?) and they go on a date to the most exclusive restaurant in Prague.
As they slow dance to smooth jazz, Rich tells Lucky his story… he was going somewhere very bad before they met on the train last night. But so was she, and now she has a gun and she must leave and get on the next train to Haje.
