Kevin Macdonald delivers the definitive work on Bob Marley, his life and a truly global influence.
Filming took place as far afield as Ghana, Japan and the UK, in addition to Bob’s beloved Jamaica and the States, and marks the first time ever that his family has authorised the use of their own private archives.
Bob Marley’s universal appeal, impact on music history and his role as a social and political prophet is both unique and unparalleled. His music and message transcend culture, language and creed and resonate around the world today as powerfully as when he was alive.
Only a handful of musicians have ever achieved such an impact and Bob Marley, though his life was far too short, stands among them.
