“With a piece in his hand he takes on the man!”
One of the most popular films to come out of Jamaica, The Harder They Come was a triumph for the Jamaican culture and it gave an honest look at life within the ghettos. It also became a legendary cult film. Ivan (Jimmy Cliff) is a country boy looking for fame and fortune in the big city of Kingston, Jamaica. He has dreams of becoming a star in the new reggae scene. When Ivan gets to town, he finds out things wont be as easy as he expected.
Come out and enjoy some great Reggae Music before and during the show!
