Beat the Lotto coming to cinemas next month
Beat the Lotto, the award-winning documentary from director Ross Whitaker (Between Land and Sea, Katie), will be released in cinemas on Friday 4 July. The film "charts the true story that captivated Ireland in 1992; the syndicate helmed by mathematician Stefan Klincewicz and their attempt to cover close to two million combinations and guarantee a rollover Lotto jackpot win". Describing his film as "a reflection of Ireland in the 1990s", director Whitaker said: "We wanted to make a film that encouraged people to reflect on what side they take - are they in favour of the syndicate who are trying to beat the system, or the trusted national institution that was a very positive force in 1990s Ireland? "It was enjoyable to build the film to an exciting climax and for the audience to wonder who would win out in the end." Beat the Lotto received its world premiere at the Dublin International Film Festival in February 2025, winning the Best Irish Film award from the Dublin Film Critics' Circle.
