What happens

Steamin' + Dreamin': The Grandmaster Cash Story is a 2009 Irish independent comedy film directed by Shaun O' Connor, and written by Con Doyle, Joe Kiely, Conor Stanley and O' Connor. The mockumentary stars Doyle as the title character, a Cork hip-hop artist struggling to achieve recognition in the international hip-hop scene. It also stars Stanley as Cash's rival rapper Dr Feekinstein, and Kiely as Seamus Kelly, the sociology student who directs the film's "documentary". The film also features cameo appearances from Tommy Tiernan and Senator Dan Boyle, as well as many well-known Corkonians appearing as themselves.
