The Belfast rap trio's film, featuring them as themselves, managed to snag one award for Outstanding Debut amidst six nominations at the BAFTAs, losing out to titles like 'Conclave'. With high hopes for Outstanding British Film, Kneecap ultimately faced disappointment as the category went to 'Conclave'. Previously recognized at the British Independent Film Awards, their film has made an impressive mark earlier in the awards season, despite a lack of broader recognition this time around. Other Irish nominations, including those for 'The Apprentice' and Saoirse Ronan, also left empty-handed.
Kneecap's Irish-language film, despite nominations in six categories including Outstanding British Film, only won one award, reflecting a challenging night for Irish cinema.
Emerson can now look forward to the Oscars, where he is also nominated for the same movie. Confidence among the Belfast rap trio was high.
