When I was very fresh disciple of reggae phenomenon I was discovering them through Gentleman&#8217;s music, whose videoclip I hit watching German music channel Viva. Since today I like to get back to his album &#8220;Journey to Jah&#8221;. In the movie both musicians show us Jamaica with its culture, full of contrasts. We get to know stories about their way from western world to the small, fascinating island, which has left such great musical and cultural legacy to the world.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">\n<div class=\"arve wp-block-nextgenthemes-arve\" data-mode=\"normal\" data-oembed=\"1\" data-provider=\"youtube\" id=\"arve-youtube-sx8m5kccm8w6aeab8cb23664374311058\">\n<span class=\"arve-inner\"><br \/>\n<span class=\"arve-embed arve-embed--has-aspect-ratio\"><br \/>\n<span class=\"arve-ar\" style=\"padding-top:56.250000%\"><\/span><iframe allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture\" allowfullscreen class=\"arve-iframe fitvidsignore\" data-arve=\"arve-youtube-sx8m5kccm8w6aeab8cb23664374311058\" data-src-no-ap=\"https:\/\/www.youtube-nocookie.com\/embed\/sX8M5Kccm8w?feature=oembed&amp;iv_load_policy=3&amp;modestbranding=1&amp;rel=0&amp;autohide=1&amp;playsinline=0&amp;autoplay=0\" frameborder=\"0\" height=\"0\" sandbox=\"allow-scripts allow-same-origin allow-presentation allow-popups allow-popups-to-escape-sandbox\" scrolling=\"no\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube-nocookie.com\/embed\/sX8M5Kccm8w?feature=oembed&#038;iv_load_policy=3&#038;modestbranding=1&#038;rel=0&#038;autohide=1&#038;playsinline=0&#038;autoplay=0\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p><\/span><\/p>\n<p><\/span><br \/>\n<script type=\"application\/ld+json\">{\"@context\":\"http:\\\/\\\/schema.org\\\/\",\"@id\":\"https:\\\/\\\/dubmassive.org\\\/en\\\/8885\\\/journey-to-jah-w-polskich-kinach\\\/#arve-youtube-sx8m5kccm8w6aeab8cb23664374311058\",\"type\":\"VideoObject\",\"embedURL\":\"https:\\\/\\\/www.youtube-nocookie.com\\\/embed\\\/sX8M5Kccm8w?feature=oembed&iv_load_policy=3&modestbranding=1&rel=0&autohide=1&playsinline=0&autoplay=0\"}<\/script>\n<\/div>\n<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>About movie<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>\u201cJourney to Jah\u201d paints a varied picture of the importance and spiritual meaning of reggae on the Caribbean island, where music is used to fight violence, sexism and poverty. As Alborosie says, \u201cGod lives here, but Satan too\u201d. For seven years, filmmakers No\u00ebl Dernesch and Moritz Springer followed the two \u201cJamaicanized\u201d artists on their flight from Western consumerism and their search for the roots of the Rastafarians and reggae music, and for a way to give meaning to their lives. Several musicians on the island support them along the way. They play together on the streets and are faced with the joyful, but also harsh reality of life on the island. Footage focusing on their lives as musicians is interspersed with interviews and stylized montages of scenes from everyday life. The result is a kaleidoscopic impression of a world where music serves as a path to unity.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><a style=\"text-align: justify;\" href=\"http:\/\/dubmassive.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/08\/photo2.png\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignright wp-image-8887 size-full\" src=\"http:\/\/dubmassive.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/08\/photo2.png\" alt=\"photo2\" width=\"400\" height=\"240\" srcset=\"https:\/\/dubmassive.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/08\/photo2.png 400w, https:\/\/dubmassive.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/08\/photo2-300x180.png 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 400px) 100vw, 400px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Germany\/Switzerland 2013, 92 min<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Script, directors: No\u00ebl Dernesch, Moritz Springer<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Director of photography: Marcus Winterbauer<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Editors: Michelle Barbin, Christoph Senn<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Sound design: Patrick B\u00f6hler<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Music: Beat Sol\u00e9r<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Cast: Tilmann Otto aka Gentleman, Alberto D\u2018Ascola aka Alborosie, Theresa Williams aka Terry Lynn, prof. dr Carolyn Cooper, Devon Gayle as Natty, Richard Stephenson aka Richie Stevens, Balfour Constantin Bailey aka Jack Radics, Damian Marley<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Producers: Ren\u00e8 R\u00f6mert, Jan Kr\u00fcger<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Production: Port-au-Prince Film &amp; Kultur Produktion in cooperation with z:Pixiu Films<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Distribution in Poland: Against Gravity<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Chosen festivals and awars: 2014 \u2013 PLANETE+ DOC FF, 2013 \u2013 IDFA Amsterdam, 2013 \u2013 MFF Zurych: Audience award.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>About distributor<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignleft size-full wp-image-8891\" src=\"http:\/\/dubmassive.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/08\/logo.gif\" alt=\"logo\" width=\"60\" height=\"100\" \/>Against Gravity is one of the leading arthouse film distribution companies in Poland, founded in Warsaw in 2004.
