Title: Riseup
Description: "There is a place on earth where music is not just entertainment, it's a way of life. Far from the tourist resorts, RiseUp travels to the heart of contemporary Jamaica and its flourishing underground music scene.  On an island where reggae is considered the voice of the people and an outlet for survival, three aspiring artists: Turbulence, (a charismatic lyrical master from the ghetto); Ice Anastasia (the privileged uptown artist); and Kemoy (a shy, angelic songstress from the country) seek to "rise up" into the legendary eminence of their iconic predecessors."--Container.
