The trinidad+tobago film festival in collaboration with the Emancipation Support Committee presents 

FINDING FELA

Director: Academy Award-winning filmmaker Alex Gibney
Documentary/ 119 mins

Finding Fela is a sweeping portrait of acclaimed Nigerian musician and activist Fela Kuti (1938–1997). Set to the insistent groove of Kuti’s revolutionary Afrobeat sound, this remarkable story of one man’s courageous stand against a corrupt and dictatorial government gives testament to the transformative power of music as a force for social and political change.

There will be a Q&A Session by Seun Kuti, son of Fela Kuti following the screening of the film.
