True to its essence, the characters remain on the same line and manage to entertain the viewer, each highlighting their own distinctive qualities or touches.

A great movie, one of the best of this year. There was a bit of confusion at one point in the plot, but nothing serious.
Fleur
Actress is magnificent and exudes a hypnotic screen presence in this affecting drama.
Billy Ollie
Through painfully honest and emotional moments, the movie becomes irresistibly relatable

Word Sound and Power was beautifully shot in 1979 in Kingston, Jamaica and had a limited theatrical release, played on USA network twice and was out of circulation for 25 years. Here it returns in DVD form, with excellent image quality, 5.1 surround sound done by acclaimed sound man Jeff Roth, who also produced the DVD. The film is an authentic exploration of Rastafarianism, Roots Reggae music, through the words and music of Jamaican's top studio band, The Soul Syndicate. It is a rare loook into the lives of these musicians who helped form the backbone of studio work for 20 years in Jamaica, as well as a powerful musical documentary. Highly recommended for everyone even remotly interested in Reggae Music.
