Filmmaker: Mark Cantwell

Genocide Is My Man Utd by Kevin Barrington

Poet: | Nationality: | Filmmaker:

Irish poet Kevin Barrington is doing interesting things with spoken-word video these days — here, with the help of filmmaker Mark Cantwell. The poem’s cynicism may be a little on the heavy side, but it works for me. (For Americans and others who may be clueless about soccer/football, “Man United” is Manchester United Football Club, one of the most successful teams in English football.)
