Acclaimed Kneecap biopic to be screened in Limerick

A SCREENING of Kneecap’s comedy drama will take place in Limerick this September.

The fictionalised origin story of Kneecap will be shown in the Belltable on Monday, September 9. 

When fate brings Belfast teacher JJ into the orbit of self-confessed ‘low-life scum’ Naoise & Liam Óg, the needle drops on a hip hop act like no other. 

Rapping in their native Irish, KNEECAP fast become the unlikely figureheads of a Civil Rights movement to save their mother tongue.

But the trio must first overcome police, paramilitaries and politicians trying to silence their defiant sound – whilst their anarchic approach to life often makes them their own worst enemies.
