About this Event

Based on footage shot in the early seventies and lost for more than thirty years, the film shows us the Wailers’ first rehearsal, when the idea of a Jamaican supergroup like the Beatles or the Stones was still just a dream. We sit in on the launch of their international career with “Get Up Stand Up”, “I Shot the Sheriff”, and the “Burnin’’” and “Catch a Fire” albums that brought to the world reggae music and Rasta consciousness together as one, starting a revolution that would change rock music and contemporary culture.
