After the global experiment of "Life in a Day", Oscar-winning director Kevin Macdonald ("One Day in September") is back on the festival circuit with a portrait of reggae legend Bob Marley. Far removed from your run-of-the-mill hagiographies, the British director attempts a detailed and objective documentation of the life and times of the Jamaican musician. Based on exclusive archival material and interviews with his friends, colleagues, his widow, his lovers and a handful of his 12 children, Macdonald walks the dirt roads of his hometown and traces Marley’s route from point zero to worldwide acclaim. Son of a British soldier and his Jamaican wife, Marley was raised in the slums of Kingston, before he turned reggae into a worldwide phenomenon as a singer, rhythm guitarist and main songwriter for The Wailers. An ardent proponent of Rastafari and a lover of women, football and marijuana, Bob Marley is resurrected through this comprehensive music documentary 30 years after his death. K.Th.
