WORLD PREMIERE Yeshi Kassa, great-granddaughter of Ethiopian Emperor Haile Selassie, investigates what happened to her beloved father after the 1974 coup that landed most of her family in prison. Looking at a rarely examined slice of history, the film delves into Selassie’s complex legacy, including how he came to be considered a divine being by Bob Marley and the Rastafarians. This informative, intriguing film follows the members of Ethiopia’s formerly royal family in an emotional, suspenseful search for closure. - Karen McMullen
