Noorthern Irish film Kneecap dominated at the British Independent Film Awards (BIFA) scooping the top gong at the glitzy ceremony held over the weekend. Kneecap bandmates Mo Chara (Liam Óg Ó Hannaidh), Móglaí Bap (Naoise Ó Cairealláin) and DJ Próvaí (JJ Ó Dochartaigh), who all star in the film, were on hand to collect the awards at the ceremony held at The Roundhouse in Camden, North London. The film is a semi-autobiographical offering, following the hip-hop trio from west Belfast on their mission to save the Irish language. It was written, produced and directed by Rich Peppiatt. On the night the bandmates received the award for Best Joint Lead Performance, while Peppiatt won the Best Debut Screenwriter award. The film also took the top prize, being named Best British Independent Film. These three gongs add to four BIFA craft awards announced in November for the film: where it won Best Casting, Best Editing, Best Original Music and Best Music Supervision, bringing their total BIFA 2024 haul to seven.
