9/10
great intro to the roots of rastafarianism
leonevilo27 November 2021
I'd never heard of leonard howell before, but this documentary does a great job of connecting the dots, showing which influences lead to the creation of rasta, from marcus garveys and 1920s harlem to indian mysticism and ganja.

Yes, there is music and the beginnings of reggae are touched upon in the later part of the documentary. Mainly the doc consists of many interviews with people who lived with howell at pinnacle or touched with him, because there are few recordings from his life.

Great doc overall.
