‘Kneecap’ Biopic Acquired by Sony Pictures Classics in First Major Sundance Sale (EXCLUSIVE)
Kneecap, the wildly energetic Irish-language hip-hip biopic, has been picked up by Sony Pictures Classics in the first major sale of Sundance.
Self-proclaimed “low life scum” Liam Óg and Naoise, along with school teacher JJ, become a political symbol and the defiant voice of Ireland’s restless youth. As they struggle to make their mark on the world and family and relationship pressures threaten to pull the plug on their dreams, the trio weave a narrative that transcends music. The film is described as “a true-life fable about man’s intrinsic urge for identity, the allure of drugs and a passion for life” and a “thrilling ride pulsating with hip-hop beats.”
