Harder Than The Rock
Mark Warmington / United Kingdom / 2024 / 100 min
In 1967, some Jamaican teenagers sitting at a London bus stop decided to form a band, which is how the Cimarons, Britain’s first reggae band, came to be. A few years later, they played a key role in the explosion of this music genre from Jamaica. The band collaborated with legends like Bob Marley and Paul McCartney, but their own music often didn’t receive the recognition it deserved. This documentary tells the story of the band and follows them on their journey to fulfil a dream: performing live one last time.
