The director managed to speak to Bob Marley’s family and get new details, that were secret for very long. He interviewed Bob’s wife, two of his children, his most famous son’s (Damian Marley) mother, and other musicians that knew him well. The film has gotten excellent reviews and is said to show how complex the man was.
