About Real Life
Filmmaker Albert Brooks wants to create a documentary that will get to the very heart of what it means to be an American family. To that end, he persuades the Yeagers of Phoenix, Ariz. , to let him and his camera crew document virtually every moment of their waking lives. What's supposed to be a cinematic presentation of reality, however, soon becomes something quite different, as Brooks can't stop himself from comically interfering in their lives. …

How rap is breaking Belfast barriers brick-by-brick, song-by-song
By Robbie MeredithBBC News NI arts correspondent
" It's like the 90s - my dad told me Back Then with the whole rave scene that helped bring people together. "
From rave then to rap today is the generational journey taken by over 30 young Northern Irish rappers.
They can be heard on a new mixtape called NI's Finest, which is about to be released on streaming services like Spotify and Apple Music .
A 21-year-old rapper known as Rich Smicks from east Belfast is one of those involved.
And his musical partner is a 21-year-old rapper called Durtburd from west Belfast .
" I grew up in west Belfast , he grew up in east so we did this project to kind of bring the two together and break barriers down, brick by brick, song by song, " Durtburd told Bbc News NI.
And according to him, rap is The Ideal way to do that.
" I think it's truly working class music, it truly brings people together because everyone is united through The Struggle .
" It's music that people can relate to.
" The name is Freedom Writers , we're calling it - it's basically about being brought together through music, things like that, " added Rich Smicks.
And like the unifying rave scene in Northern Ireland that his dad remembers from three decades ago, Rich says " it's the same now with the rap".
" You've got people coming from east, west, north and south. "
Capturing Real Life in musicLike some other rappers, They wear masks when performing and their tracks are often hard-hitting, covering what They see and hear around them in the areas of Belfast in which They Live .
" The main things would be focusing on the long-lasting effects of The Troubles , paramilitaries, life in Belfast today, " said Rich Smicks.
" I would touch on corruption in the government, in Stormont, things like that as well as My Own battles with depression and things like that.
" Just whatever I'm feeling - it depends on The Song . "
Durtburd also tries to capture " Real Life in Belfast " in his music.
" The struggles people actually go through like addiction, like juggling debts, like just trying to survive and keep yourself sweet, " he lists as subjects for his lyrics.
" As well as the trauma that's been handed down to us from our parents and older generations from The Troubles . "
But their Music Is varied, according to Rich Smicks.
" Me and Durtburd, we'd have room-shakers, the wee dance tracks, so we mix it up! "
Eighteen-year-old producer Kantuftw from Dundonald also has a track on the mixtape, the largest ever put together in Northern Ireland .
" My music varies in different styles but what I like about it is that some of the songs speak With You , " He Said .
" They 're not depressing, not sad, but The Words and lyrics would impact Other People who are going through the same things. "
Kantuftw is especially proud of some of his tracks that address things such as Mental Health .
" A lot of people struggle with that type of stuff and it's like if people listen to that music that will help them, " He Said .
" A lot of Young People , if They do hear someone going through similar experiences, it's more like a coping mechanism to know that They 're not alone and know that there's Other People going through the same things. "
Some of the rappers involved were among those behind.
The NI's Finest Mixtape is the brainchild of James Ayo from Hotbox Studios in east Belfast .
It has also been supported by organisations like the PRS Foundation and the Rio Ferdinand Foundation.
'This is what we do'Some of the recording sessions were captured in.
" There's a lot of rap happening in Northern Ireland , " James Ayo told Bbc News NI.
" So I thought let's put this mixtape together to show how big it is.
" It's not just in Belfast - we have rappers from Derry, from Newry, places like that, and it's to showcase how serious it is to them. "
But even he was a little taken aback by The Number of local rappers who wanted to be part of it.
" I was a bit shocked but at the same time this is our community, this is what we do, " he explained.
" It's quite big already within the rap community in Northern Ireland but being recognised outside of that is a bit hard sometimes. "
Durtburd and Rich Smicks are hoping that will change.
" We don't really get the recognition and it's only started out really properly but I always knew we were going to take it over, " said Rich Smicks.
" The likes of Dublin, London . . They 're already established - we're not.
" Hopefully One Day They will notice us, The World will recognise it. "
NI Finest Mixtape is launched on 10 and 11 November with performances at The Deer 's Head, Hotbox Studios and The Crescent Arts Centre in Belfast .
