Rockers (1978) - The Movie Opera

Rockers (1978) Overview:

Crafted by Theodoros Bafaloukos, "Rockers" is not just a film; it's a heartfelt homage to the zenith of Jamaica's reggae and Rastafari culture. Its bedrock of authenticity features reggae giants like Leroy "Horsemouth" Wallace, Burning Spear, and Jacob Miller, while also offering intimate snapshots of places like the iconic Harry J Studios.

Situated in Kingston, Horsemouth, a fervent drummer and follower of the Rastafari movement, aims to amplify his livelihood by trading and circulating records. Drawing on the Rastafarian ideals of cooperative togetherness and communal support, he rallies funds and encouragement from his community, eventually procuring a motorcycle to distribute records throughout Jamaica's terrain. The storyline, while initially reminiscent of Vittorio de Sica’s "The Bicycle Thief," intriguingly evolves, blending reggae rhythms with the spirit of a Robin Hood tale.
