Kneecap (Film)

Event information

An energetic bio-pic in which the main protagonists play themselves. JJ, a Belfast Irish-language speaker comes into contact with self-confessed ‘low life scum’ Naoise and Liam Og, and the resulting collaboration develops into a hip hop act like no other. Rapping in their native Irish, they spearhead a drive to save their mother tongue. Naoise’s republican father (Michael Fassbender) says “every word of Irish spoken is a bullet for Irish freedom.” The film follows the rise of the group and their constant battles with authority. The riotous humour and punchy editing makes for one of the more lively viewing experiences of the year, and possibly one of the funniest.
