The new short film uses archival footage and interviews to illustrate the path a young DIY designer from Ireland took to bringing his clothes to the world.
Rural Ireland isn’t exactly the place you’d associate with hip hop artists. However, for Daniel Walters aka SADSAC Donegal has been his home and base for creating and distributing his own custom clothing line.
Drawing from the power of nostalgia, he frequently applies graphics from his favourite childhood shows to create his pieces and has had Black Bear and Wifi’s Funeral among others don his clothing.
