Is the golden ticket made of fake gold?

Abdi is a Somali refugee living in Kenya and receives the unthinkable... he wins a lottery that puts him on a short list for a U.S. visa. This is his ticket way out. But before he can cash in his golden ticket, the police start raiding his neighborhood, and targeting refugees. So it turns out that it takes a lot more than just winning a lottery ticket to make it to the U.S. More than half of the people that win each year will never make it.
