British war movie Kajaki hits Irish cinemas this Friday, and I was lucky enough to spend some time with actor Scott Kyle who played paratrooper Stuart Pearson, one of the group of soldiers whose experience trapped in a minefield in Afghanistan in 2006 inspired the movie. From paying respect to the survivors of this horrific ordeal to the actors bonding at bootcamp, as well as Kyle selling the idea of a Kajaki stage play really, really well, there is quite a bit up for discussion, so take some time off to listen to it through the links below. Kajaki is released in Omniplex Cinemas on Friday March 13th.
