An epic 12-year journey into the world of an Irish Traveller community, KNUCKLE takes us inside their brutal, secretive and exhilarating bare-knuckle fighting lives. Chronicling a history of violent feuding between rival families, the story focuses on two brothers as they fight for their reputations and the honour of their family name.

Director

Studied history at University in Dublin in the 1980s and left college wanting to write although was more interested in fiction and the theatre at first. Loved all sorts of movies; “Raging Bull” and Schrader’s “Blue Collar” were big influences as were Europeans like Bergman and the Germans Fassbender, Wenders and Herzog.
