Belfast rap trio KNEECAP's big screen debut film has been selected for the 'Great 8' showcase at Cannes.
Kneecap, a new anti-establishment comedy film inspired by the birth of the Irish-language rap group, completed shooting this month and features the eponymous trio, who play heightened versions of their own lives against the backdrop of post-Troubles Belfast.
Described by the LA Times as “reminiscent of the early Eminem”, the band is gaining critical acclaim for their artful blend of Irish and English rap about the gritty reality of growing up in Belfast.
