A lighthearted romantic comedy built on the absurdist premise that two people with catastrophic bad luck might cancel each other out while searching for a missing heiress in Mexico.

The daughter of a wealthy businessman has disappeared in Mexico, and all the efforts to find her have been unsuccessful. A psychologist, knowing that the girl has an ultra bad luck, persuades her father to send to Mexico one of his employees, an accountant with super bad luck, to find her. Perhaps he will be lucky, and his bad luck could help to find the unlucky girl.
