Of course Kneecap should play Glastonbury, says Laura Perrins. Yes, they're morons. But morons deserve free speech too. One member may be on trial, but only for a summary offence. As long as we don't have to listen.

Scooter Meets his Customers

February 22nd sees the Dublin premiere of a film made by Scooter Twomey which takes a sideways look at the issues around rendition, torture and the complicity of the irish government. This film covers the adventures of our intrepid Guerrilla film maker, and long time Indymedia video contributer Scooter as he turns himself into a entrepreneurial master of war. Scooter Twomey endeavours to set up his own independent torture company in lieu of the CIA being banned from Europe for extraordinary rendition.

WINNER: *Made in Cork* – Cork Film Festival.
The Irish Examiner ‘Made in Cork’ Award, which celebrates local filmmaking, went to this film which depicts Ireland’s role in international torture through US extraordinary rendition.

Tom Archer (Head of Factual BBC) said ‘Noel had so many ideas and put so much work and energy into this film. It was a great idea for a film, worthy of Michael Moore, a genuine target and a funny way to satirize it… a series of stunts…each more manic than the last. A career awaits, but probably not in torture.’

This film is a must see from the point of view of the activists community who were involved in the anti-war fight, or for anyone who wants to see how blind the eye is that is turned towards making a bit of profit out of war.

Don’t miss the chance to see how our little island gets in on the act of turning a buck out of the US war machine.

This award winning film will be given its Dublin Premier on Friday the 22nd February – downstairs in the Teachers Club (36 Parnell Square) at 8.00pm.

Admission 10 Euro

Unwaged - Suggested donation 6 Euro



All money raised will go towards the costs of putting on this year's Dublin Anarchist Bookfair
