Lottery winner Peter Lavery looks back on the day that changed his life and races to finish the ambitious conversion of the Titanic Pumphouse into a whiskey distillery.
A character study of Peter Lavery, a Belfast bus driver who won 拢10.2m on the lottery in 1996 and has several new business enterprises launching this year, including the first whiskey distillery in the city for 90 years.
The film follows the progress of Peter鈥檚 ambitious plans for a 鈥榝loating鈥� distillery in the Titanic Pumphouse and the launch of a new tour boat on the River Lagan. We also look back at his lottery win, what happened to him after that, and how he coped with the turmoil of going from earning 拢200 a week to suddenly becoming one of Northern Ireland's richest people overnight.
