I personally loved this documentary. For the first time we get to see a high quality documentary take us inside a Rasta Camp and interview the founder Dermot Fagan who is a great character.
A good all round view of Rastafari in the 21st century.
This film shows us that not all Rasta's have the same beliefs and not all believe that Haile Selassie is God or that repatriation means moving to Africa but for many it's a place in ones mind. The film helps to dismiss many of the rumours about Rastafari and speaks to important members of different houses of Rastafari.
Can reccomend....

Well'FULLY-put! Coping With Babylon gives great reasoning & detail. Plus the works of Dermot Fagan~that is Blessed! Give Thanx to all in the film & to you, Mr.Oliver

Still a good knowledge base is presented . Good footage, even excellent subtitles. If Rasta is a subject of interest this can be a good thing . In this writers opinion, the information on some points is a bit out of date, however.

This is my effort to show the diversity and complexity of the modern Rasta movement, from Jamaica to New York.
