　　This is filmmaker Costis Mitsotakis - the only man in a Spanish village who didn't win a share of a ?600million lottery prize because he forgot to buy a ticket.

　　這就是今天的主角──科斯蒂斯 米佐塔基斯。在這個西班牙村子裏，他是唯一沒有資格分享6億歐元樂透大獎的人，因為，他忘買彩票了。

　　When the residents of Sodeto's number came up on the Christmas mega draw - called El Gordo or the Big One - they danced down the street in the conga.

　　當蘇德圖的居民們發現，El Gordo（意為大胖子）聖誕百萬抽獎活動上的中獎號就是他們所買的樂透號時，居民們都走到街上跳起了康加舞。

　　But Mr Mitsotakis wasn't celebrating - because when community leaders went round the 70 houses in their remote community collecting money for tickets they missed him off. A share in a single ticket - or a 'participation' would have cost him ?4 and would have won him an ?83,000 prize.

　　同樣是蘇德圖居民，米佐塔基斯卻高興不起來──當社區負責人走訪70家居民收集買樂透的份子錢時，他們把米佐塔基斯給忘掉了。“參與”這項份子錢買樂透活動只需花費米佐塔基斯4歐元，但能為他掙得8.3萬歐元的大獎。

　　The Greek national moved to the area after falling in love with a woman. When the relationship fell apart he stayed in the area and has been renovating a barn.

　　米佐塔基斯是一名希臘人，他與一個女人相愛後搬到了蘇德圖。分手後他依然住在蘇德圖，現在還翻新了他的穀倉。

　　However, Mr Mitsotakis did not lose out entirely as the day after the Christmas draw was made a neighbour agreed to use their winnings to buy a plot of land he had been trying to sell.

　　即便沒有中大獎，米佐塔基斯也不會一無所獲。在聖誕大抽獎公佈的第二天，一個鄰居同意用獎金購買米佐塔基斯待售的一塊土地。

　　The Spanish lottery El Gordo - the Fat One - has a total of1,800 winning tickets. Each ticket costs around ?16 but it is sub-divided into four participations which cost around ?4 each.

　　西班牙彩票大獎El Gordo的獎金非常豐厚，而這項樂透大獎總共有1800張中獎總票。每張總票要16歐元，但將總票分開為4張小票後，每張小票只需4歐元。

　　While some people won ?83,000 after buying a single share, other villagers won millions. Each one of the residents bought a ticket bearing the first prize winning number 58,268 - except for Mr Mitsotakis.

　　買了單張小票的居民能獲得8.3萬歐元的獎金，而也有部分居民獲得了過百萬歐元的獎金。每一位蘇德圖的居民都買了一張印有頭獎號碼58268的中獎樂透票──唯獨米佐塔基斯沒有。

　　In total, the people of Sodeto received around ?100million of the ?600million money for the 'first prize tickets'. The rest of the ?600million fund went to people in the town of Granen nearby and neighbouring villages.

　　蘇德圖的居民們總共獲得了6億歐元獎金裏的1億，剩餘的5億獎金散落到了格蘭靈鎮和附近鎮的居民的口袋裏。

　　The village, in northern Spain, is around three hours by car from Barcelona on the coast.

　　蘇德圖位於西班牙的北部，從巴塞羅那驅車三個小時就能到達它附近的海岸。
