Plot

Federico possesses a gift as extraordinary as it is feared: he is capable of stealing the luck from those around him. His ability is no mystery to Sam, the enigmatic owner of a casino isolated in the middle of the desert, known as "the god of chance," a man marked by his past as a Holocaust survivor. Sam recruits Federico to use his curse to ruin the good fortune of the luckiest players. For years, Federico wields his power like an unrelenting shadow, until moral weariness and the need for redemption push him to want to escape.

But in Sam's universe, no one leaves of their own free will. By challenging him, Federico loses his gift, taken away in the same mysterious way it was granted to him. Exiled and forgotten, he wanders aimlessly, until seven years later, a piece of news shakes his lethargy: Tomás, the sole survivor of a plane crash that left no witnesses or explanations, could be the key to his return.

Convinced that Tomás possesses supernatural luck, Federico takes him on as a pupil and instrument of his revenge. He trains and guides him, intending to confront Sam once again, not as a pawn on his board, but as a challenger in a final game. But in a world where luck is manipulated like another currency of the game, no one is untouchable, and the price of challenging the gods is always steep.
