The Lottery has been going on for centuries as a yearly tradition, although it is not what you think it is. No one has ever questioned it's origin, and the winners just except their fate. Until 2024, Ethan Hale was just a normal person, until he got picked for it. See his reaction to it all, and watch as him and his best friend Charlotte Summers figures out the horrifying truth behind the lottery.

(The idea was taken from Shirley Jackson's short story The Lottery. Highly recommended that the reader watches The Lottery to get a better understanding of it. It can be found on YouTube in two separate parts).

(Also instead of towns everything is villages, just thought I would clear that up).

Pictures Worth a Thousand Words

18 parts Complete

The path of life is a hard one and when you need to make a choice that determines your future, it just gets that much harder. Do you start all over in a new town? Do you stay and do something you don't know if you actually want to do? As long as you are lucky enough to have someone there beside you, you know no matter what you choose they will support you. But sometimes life changes and the people you thought would be there for you are gone. Leaving us alone to make the tough choices of life. It is then that we must choose, left or right? Charlotte is completing year 12. Teachers are on her back about the career path she wants to go down at the end of the year. Her family want her to stay but want her to also do what she wants, even if it means leaving. With the last few months and the stress of finding what she wants to do with her life, her and her group of friends decide to do something fun. Something they can do over the weekends before they graduate and all go their separate ways. But what is fun at the start, might be the reason it all ends. I guess they do say pictures are worth a thousand words.
