When an altruistic math geek finds her loved ones in financial hardship, she must use her newly-found ability of lottery prediction to turn their lives around risking her own as a mysterious criminal lottery boss wants her dead for ruining his superprofits.
I think there may be a slight story problem. If you hold a lottery and you sell 100 dollars worth of tickets, the prize will be 50 dollars. This is how the lottery makes money. When a person wins the lottery, it doesn't cut into the profits. The person who holds the lottery always makes a profit. InRead more

If you hold a lottery and you sell 100 dollars worth of tickets, the prize will be 50 dollars. This is how the lottery makes money.
When a person wins the lottery, it doesn’t cut into the profits. The person who holds the lottery always makes a profit.
In other words, in a lottery, someone always wins. But the person who holds the lottery always makes money. They don’t actually lose money when there is a winner.

This is not a critique of the logline.
Instead, I just wanted to say, I think the story should end with the lead saving the winery by creating a wine selling app.
In other words, the leads app gets stolen from him, he loses his job and is forced to work at the family winery. (The last place he wants to work)??However, the winery is losing money.
So he saves the day by bringing the winery?into the modern age.
Plus this ties the beginning of the movie (Losing his app) with the end of the movie (Creating a successful app)
I also don’t think his father should be dead. I think he has a bad relationship with his father.
His father wanted him to take over the family winery because it’s in his blood. But the lead turned his back on the winery and his father to go join a tech company.
So what the lead thinks he wants is?to get his app back or possibly his old job back.
But what he really needs is to repair his relationship with his family and save the winery.
You should also have a fiance who dumps the lead after he loses everything. When the lead goes to the winery he meets the real love interest of the movie.
However, in the third act the old ‘fiance’ should show back up, telling the lead she wants him back and that the company that fired him wants him back as well.
This is everything the lead thinks he wants… but of course, in the end, the lead chooses the winery and the real love interest.
I also think this would work very well if the lead was Hispanic.? (A?nod to the movie, “A Walk in the Clouds”) A Hispanic family that believes very strongly that nothing is more important than family.
Anyway, I think there is a story here. I like the premise. And anything I wrote is just a suggestion.
