  1. 1. Lottery

    Perry L. Crandall, a warm-hearted man with an intellectual disability who lives a quiet, routine life with his fiercely protective mother, unexpectedly wins a huge lottery jackpot. The sudden wealth thrusts him into a media circus and forces him to confront manipulative relatives, scheming lawyers, and difficult questions about trust, independence, and dignity. With the help of a few compassionate friends and his own straightforward wisdom, he navigates legal battles, moral dilemmas, and personal growth, ultimately redefining what family and success mean for him.
