Kneecap

The Belfast rap group burst onto the screen in this fictionalised reimagining of their origin story: rapping in Irish to show that it’s a living language and its legal status equal to English in NI is just. Playing versions of themselves, the trio - Liam Óg Ó hAnnaidh, Naoise Ó Cairealláin, and JJ Ó Dochartaigh - embody their claim, “We don’t discriminate who we piss off” in this gleefully chaotic triumph of a movie.

Deserved winners of the audience award at this year’s Sundance film festival.
