Description

Don Cándido is a modest old office clerk who makes his first pool coming off of a bad streak at work. He has thirteen hits and wins a considerable sum of money. This causes him to be blinded by ambition, changing his character, spreading his newfound hobby to his family, and gambling becoming the center of his life.
