Jackpot

JACKPOT takes the viewer inside the sometimes strange, sometimes hilarious, sometimes heartbreaking, and always compelling world of hardcore Bingo players. With their army of lucky charms at their side, their 20 cards laid out in front of them, and their hopes and dreams riding on the next number out of the machine, these passionate players have devoted an innumerable amount of money, time, and effort to the pursuit of a game that does not require skill but rather patience, determination, and a great deal of luck. As the we peel away the layers, JACKPOT becomes about more than the game of Bingo, it becomes about the nature of luck, superstition, chance, and the need for human beings to feel like victory is possible, even if it is always just one number away.
