"Sony Pictures Classics Acquires Irish Rap Trio Kneecap Biopic After Sundance Debut"
Irish rap trio Kneecap made a smoky entrance at the Sundance Film Festival to mark the world premiere of their film "Kneecap," featuring Michael Fassbender, which was acquired by Sony Pictures Classics. The film, in the native Irish language, follows the trio's rise as unlikely figureheads of a civil rights movement to save their mother tongue. The stunt, involving a Northern Irish PSNI Land Rover, aimed to provoke conversation around Irish language and politics. This marks the first Irish language film to screen at Sundance, and the trio's manager and a creative agency were behind the attention-grabbing stunt.
