14 British Independent Film Awards nominations! An unapologetic, wild ride from Belfast-based filmmakers, diving headfirst into the energy and chaos of Northern Ireland’s punk-rap scene.
Following the real-life band Kneecap, this gritty, fast-paced film is equal parts comedy, music and raw social commentary, offering an inside look at the band's rise and rebellion. The story follows Mo Chara (Móglaí Bap) and his bandmates as they navigate fame, friendship and the rough streets of Belfast. Known for their outspoken lyrics in both Irish and English, the band faces off with police, the press and sometimes each other - all while keeping their humour razor-sharp. The film captures the rebellious spirit of a band determined to make their voice heard. It’s loud, it’s political and it’s unlike anything you’ve seen before.
