Saipan revisits the infamous row between Mick McCarthy and Roy Keane in the weeks before the 2002 World Cup. Led by coach McCarthy and captain Keane, the Irish team travels to Saipan for a key preparation camp. However, Keane grows frustrated with the quality of the facilities and resources available to them. McCarthy attempts to reassure his star player, but soon the two men are embroiled in a heated and very public dispute - one that escalates when Keane threatens to return home.
Saipan is a compelling and vibrant dramatisation of one of the most infamous sporting sagas in Irish history. Éanna Hardwicke (Keane) and Steve Coogan (McCarthy) are both superb as the men at the centre of the row.
