Villaviciosa de al lado is a Spanish comedy film that was released in 2016. The movie was directed by Nacho G. Velilla and stars Carmen Machi, Leo Harlem, and Carlos Santos. The film is set in the town of Villaviciosa, where a lottery jackpot has been won by the entire community, except for one person. This person, named Manolo (played by Leo Harlem), is going through a rough patch in his life and is struggling financially. The rest of the town sees the lottery winnings as an opportunity to improve their lives, but they quickly realize that their newfound wealth has some unexpected consequences.

The movie opens with Manolo, a mechanic, struggling to make ends meet. He owes money to several people in the town and has just had his car repossessed. Manolo's troubles seem to be never-ending, and he is constantly dealing with the frustrations of living in a small town where everyone knows everyone else's business.

Meanwhile, the rest of the town is overjoyed by their lottery win. They throw a huge party to celebrate and start making plans for how they will spend their newfound wealth. However, their happiness is short-lived when they discover that the one person who didn't buy a ticket is Manolo, who happens to be the only person in town who is truly in need of the money.

The townspeople become increasingly desperate to get Manolo to share in the winnings. They try to bribe him with offers of money, cars, and even women. But Manolo remains steadfast in his refusal to accept any handouts.

As tensions rise in the town, the lottery ticket goes missing, and a wild goose chase ensues. The townspeople are determined to find the missing ticket and make sure that Manolo doesn't miss out on his share of the winnings. Along the way, they uncover some surprising secrets about each other, and the town is shaken to its core.

Carmen Machi, who plays the role of the town's mayor, brings a lot of energy to the film. Her character is determined to keep the peace in the town, even when things start to spiral out of control. Leo Harlem, who plays Manolo, adds a touch of heart to the movie. His character is relatable and sympathetic, and viewers can't help but root for him to come out on top.

Overall, Villaviciosa de al lado is a fun and entertaining movie that highlights some of the quirks of small-town life. The film's humor is well-timed, and the performances by the cast are excellent. The movie is a great choice for a light-hearted night in with friends or family.
