- Synopsis
- The feature documentary film features interviews with some of today's most celebrated reggae artists, Rastafarians and academics who have studied the Rastafarian movement. Given that Bob Marley’s music and lyrics were informed by his Rastafarian beliefs, it’s important for people to have a deeper understanding of who Rastafarians are today and the impact the movement has had on peoples of the world. Seen through the journey of twenty-five year old Donisha Prendergast, granddaughter of Bob and Rita Marley as she travels to Jamaica, England, Canada, Israel, South Africa, Ethiopia and India on a journey of self discovery and understanding the globalization of the Rastafari faith.
