- Synopsis
- Set in biblical times, the movie tells the story of Sodom, the "sin city" of ancient times - notorious for its residents’ hedonistic lifestyle of partying, gambling, promiscuity and corruption. A close look at life in Sodom reveals many similarities to life in our own western world in the 21st century…
  The storyline follows Lot, the only righteous man in Sodom, who does his best to live a moral life and protect his beautiful young daughter Charlotte from the temptations of the outside world, while his shrewish wife makes his life at home a living hell.
  Lot's greatest nemesis is Bera, the tyrannical King of Sodom and owner of the largest casino in town, who rules Sodom with an iron fist, with help from his two hot-tempered sons.
  However both the righteous Lot and the villain Bera, are unaware that Sodom's fate has already been sealed. Up in the heavens, far from the city's gates, God decides to destroy the entire city. As a gesture to his first "client" in the ancient era – Abraham, God agrees to spare Lot (Abraham's nephew) and his family. However, trouble strikes when the warning of the imminent destruction accidentally reaches Bera.
  Bera immediately comes up with a sinister plan in his devious mind: he will switch places with Lot, and flee the city as if "the only righteous man in Sodom". But, his son and heir to the throne, Ninve, foil his plan by falling desperately in love with Lot's angelic daughter…
