This film gives us an interesting premise of taking chances with life by using a dice. A hard core gambler runs out of luck trying to pay off his debts. A chance encounter and a televison programme about using a dice to dictate each individual's decision started the gambler's new journey in life. He devised a system using the dice to win a few big winners. He used the dice system again as the basis for all his future decisions. This led to a roller coaster journey of discovery with a new girl friend. The end showed five other versions of the story's ending based on the other numbers on the dice. Perplexing. Mind boggling.
