Oscar & Lucinda

Synopsis

OSCAR AND LUCINDA is a story of fate and chance in which the throw of a dice or the fall of a card can affect many lives. It is also the extraordinary love story of two orphans from opposite sides of the world. Both are gamblers but also innocents who gain experience, with difficulty and with joy, in the colourful times of the mid-nineteenth century.
