The Jamaica High Commission in New Delhi, in collaboration with PVR INOX, held an exclusive premiere of the Paramount Pictures Bob Marley Biopic, “One Love,” attracting film critics, media, and officials on February 15, 2024 at Delhi’s iconic PVR Priya Cinema at Basant Lok Complex, Vasant Vihar.
BOB MARLEY: ONE LOVE, directed by Reinaldo Marcus Green, is a film based on the life of reggae singer and songwriter Bob Marley. Set in Jamaica during the late 70’s-early 80’s, the film offers a unique glimpse into Marley’s life, his message, and his impact on humanity. A groundbreaking film that showcases the life and music of a globally renowned Jamaican icon, overcoming adversity to create revolutionary music.
According to His Excellency, Jason K. Hall, High Commissioner of Jamaica to India, “Bob Marley is undoubtedly one of Jamaica’s greatest sons and perhaps the greatest musician of all time, based on the impact of his music inspiring billions around the world, irrespective of race or creed. His message, the embodiment of “One Love”, fighting against oppression, injustice and inequality, giving voice to the voiceless, calling for peace, unity and love, is as relevant today as it was back then, over 40 years ago, perhaps even more so as our planet contends with wars on multiple fronts, the onslaught of climate change. It is a tremendous honour to be able to share this story with India and I hope that it will inspire us all to be more compassionate, more caring and above all be One in Love. “Let’s get together and feel all right”.
