Feature: Austin chats with Belfast rap trio Kneecap and director Richard Papiatt about their Irish language biopic ‘Kneecap’
Manage episode 432117236 series 2411543
Written and directed by Richard Pappiatt, ‘Kneecap’ tells the fictionalized origin story of Belfast rap trio Kneecap, with the rappers playing themselves in their feature film debut. Through drugs, rap music, and a whole lot of trouble the trio fight to save the Irish language in a place with less than 80,000 native speakers. The film made a splash at Sundance earlier this year as the first Irish language film and first non-us film to win a Next Audience Award. Today on FilmWeek, Austin chats with Mo Chara, Moglaí Bap, and DJ Provaí of Kneecap alongside director Richard Pappiatt.
