The story revolves
around a group of young musicians, rockn rollers who venerate
Bob Marley and wish to become a famous band. But their lives on
the lowest rungs of Sri Lanka society, with its poverty and violence,
offer them little if no oppotunities. Friends returning from Italy
talk about the money to be made. But the journey there is not straightforward
because its not legal. The film follows them on their dangerous
journey with all its hazards, its comradeship, its tears and laughters.
And also death. On returning to Sri Lanka, somehow they seem to
be better equipped to survive either in Sri Lanka, or to return
to Italy, this time as legal immigrants.
