BEING AP is a story of one man’s sacrifice, courage, doubt and an addiction to winning. Legendary jump jockey and 19 times champion, AP McCoy is hooked on riding winners, but at 40 he’s all too aware that he is nearing the end. This ambitious, revealing and visually stunning feature documentary gets under the skin of Ireland’s most eminent sportsman, revealing the physical and psychological costs that this manic quest for victory brings. Having dominated his sport for over 20 years, AP is now faced with the ultimate decision; when to walk away?
