Kneecap

Friday, September 13 until Thursday, September 19, 2024Yukon Theatre

A rebellious anthem for cultural preservation, Kneecap is as shaggy, rambunctious, and lovable as the eponymous hip hop group at its center. 96% on Rotten Tomatoes!

When fate brings Belfast schoolteacher JJ into the orbit of self-confessed ‘low life scum’ Naoise & Liam Og, the needle drops on a hip hop act like no other. Rapping in their native Irish language, KNEECAP fast become the unlikely figureheads of a Civil Rights movement to save their mother tongue. In this fiercely original sex, drugs and hip-hop biopic KNEECAP play themselves, laying down a global rallying cry for the defense of native cultures.

In Irish Gaelic and English with English subtitles.

Recommended for ages 15+ for strong language, sex and violence throughout.

Ireland's official selection for "Best International Feature" at the 97th Academy Awards!

A meta-contextual music-world biopic whose success relies upon one giant bet paying off big, the new comedy Kneecap is a riotous delight that will have even the most staid audiences ready to flip the bird. - Barry Hertz, The Globe and Mail
