Lot was a man in the biblical Book of Genesis, chapters 11–14 and 19. Notable events in his life include his journey with his uncle Abram (Abraham); his flight from the destruction of Sodom and Gomorrah, during which Lot's wife became a pillar of salt; and his being intoxicated by his daughters so that they could have sexual intercourse with him and ensure their family would have descendants.
The story of Sodom and Gomorrah was told in a 1962 film directed by Robert Aldrich starring Stewart Granger as Lot and Anouk Aimée and Pier Angeli as the daughters.
