Nas Olimpíadas Irwin Flitzer (John Candy) desgraçou a si mesmo quando colocou pesos extras no seu time de trenó, fazendo com que ele tivesse de devolver sua medalha de ouro. Alguns anos depois, Derice Bannock (Leon), um jamaicano filho de um antigo amigo de Irwin, fracassa para se classificar como velocista para a prova de 100 metros nas Olimpíadas, por causa de um estúpido acidente. Mas quando Derice descobre que Flitzer também vive na Jamaica, ele decide ir para as Olimpíadas de qualquer jeito, não como um corredor mas liderando uma equipe de trenó.

A turnê “Uprising” ocorreu na Europa entre 30 de maio e 13 de julho de 1980, com cinco datas nos EUA, em setembro. Foram os últimos shows de Bob Marley antes de sua trágica morte com 36 anos de idade, em maio de 1981. A turnê foi feita para o lançamento do álbum “Uprising”, que estreou em 10 de junho de 1980. Dias depois, em 13 de junho, o show na arena Westfalenhalle, em Dortmund, foi gravado pela série de TV alemã Rockpalast e, pela primeira vez, está disponível com um vídeo restaurado na melhor qualidade possível. Bob Marley e a banda The Wailers, em forma surpreendente, entregam uma setlist com grandes singles e clássicos de outros álbuns.

Over the course of more than two decades, Birmingham's UB40 have become global ambassadors for reggae, a journey captured perfectly on The Collection. This programme is split into two main sections: a 26-track video collection and a documentary detailing their 20th anniversary concert in September 2001. Forgoing chronology in favour of a more random approach, the video selection is slightly disjointed on a visual level, leaping from decade to decade within the space of a couple of tracks. While they have never made a truly great video (most feature the band lip-synching in various places around the world) UB40 have certainly been prolific over the years. "One In Ten" and "Food for Thought", their earliest work, represented the sound of young, multicultural Britain just as well as the more lauded Specials. And while there have perhaps been a few too many covers in recent times, it is hard to deny the effectiveness of "Red, Red Wine" and "Kingston Town".
Awake Zion explores the connections between Rasta, Reggae and Judaism, through one woman's beat-laden adventure into the meaning of identity. All the way back to the alleged sultry affair between the Jewish King Solomon and the African Queen of Sheba, Jewish influence is evident in the spiritual history of Ethiopia - turning up subtly in Rastafarian lifestyle and then, inevitably, in reggae. Unravelling the story of this unlikely kinship, Awake Zion unites Jewish and Jamaican musicians, scholars, and historians in a celebration roots and culture - traveling from Crown Heights, Brooklyn, where Caribbean and Jewish cultures share a history of adversity - to Jamaica, the birthplace of reggae - and ultimately to Israel, where a sizzling reggae scene thrives today. Awake Zion examines the preconceptions of what it means to be Jewish, what it means to be Rasta, what it means to be white or black - and, most importantly, the universal search for what it means to be "home".

'Roots Rock Reggae' depicts an unforgettable moment in Jamaica's history when music defined the island's struggles and immortalized its heroes. Director Jeremy Marre films Bob Marley and the Wailers, and Lee 'Scratch' Perry record in his legendary Black Ark studio with The Upsetters. Jimmy Cliff rehearses with Sly and Robbie, while Inner Circle's historic live gig is recorded on the violent Kingston streets. The legendary Abyssinians harmonize their haunting Rastafarian songs; Joe Higgs (formerly Bob Marley's teacher) plays and talks; majestic toaster U Roy raps alongside The Mighty Diamonds, and Third World record in a Kingston studio. There is also early archive footage of Toots and the Maytals, and Haile Selessie's royal visit to Jamaica while police and thieves battle it out on the streets, and the ghettos erupt in violence. 1977: An extraordinary year for Reggae music.
