Bad Friday: Rastafari after Coral Gardens plot

A documentary that focuses on a Rastafari community in western Jamaica, which commemorates the Coral Gardens incident every year. This incident took place just after Jamaica's independence in 1962, when the Jamaican government arrested, imprisoned and tortured hundreds of Rastas. Documenting the shocking history of violence against Rastas in Jamaica, the film shows how people use memories of traumatic events to create new possibilities for a shared future.
