As Luck Would Have It
Directed by Álex de la Iglesia
Produced by Alfresco Enterprises, Trivisión
A darkly comic social satire about a washed-up publicist whose catastrophic accident paradoxically resurrects his fame, exploring media obsession and the absurdity of modern celebrity.
Roberto is an unemployed publicist who achieved success when he thought of a famous slogan: "Coca-Cola, the spark of life." Now he is a desperate man, trying to remember the happy days, back to the hotel where he spent the honeymoon with his wife. However, instead of the hotel, he finds a museum built around the Roman theater in the city. While walking through the ruins, he has an accident, an iron rod sticks into his head and leaves him completely paralyzed. If he tries to move he would die. Roberto becomes the focus of the media, which will change his life ...
