Synopsis

Bob Marley’s 1977 album, ‘Exodus’, is a masterpiece containing ten songs, including ‘Jamming’, ‘Waiting in Vain’, and ‘Exodus’, and was selected as ‘The Album of the 20th Century’ by Time Magazine. Although Bob Marley, who put Reggae on the worldwide map and spoke of freedom and peace in his lyrics, left this world 27 years ago, he is still remembered not just as a musician but as a symbol of resistance culture. The co-producer of Martin Scorsese’s No Direction Home: Bob Dylan, documentary filmmaker for England’s BBC, Anthony Wall, introduces the power and impact of Marley’s work by presenting big historical events that occurred in 1977 along with Marley’s activities categorized by the month. By showing the lyrics of Marley’s songs in text, he effectively conveys the messages Bob Marley professed through this album. (Chun Jin-su)
