About this Event
Black Eye Film Club presents ROCKERS (1978)
Celebrate Black Music Month with Black Eye Film Club as we screen the cult classic Rockers (1978), a vibrant portrait of Jamaica's reggae culture at its creative peak.
Starring legendary reggae musicians including Horsemouth Wallace, Burning Spear, Gregory Isaacs, and Jacob Miller, Rockers follows a struggling drummer navigating Kingston's music scene after his motorcycle is stolen. Part street tale, part musical, and part cultural document, the film captures the energy, style, politics, and community spirit that helped reggae become a global force.
More than a movie, Rockers is a time capsule of Black musical innovation and artistic independence. Join us as we kick off our Black Music Month series with one of the most beloved music films ever made. A celebration of reggae, resistance, and the power of culture to shape identity and community.
Following the screening, stay for a community discussion exploring the film's lasting influence on music, style, and Black cultural expression.
Black Eye Film Club preserves and celebrates Black cinema through communal viewing, discussion, and discovery.
Doors open at 6, film introduced at 6:45, screening starts at 7.
