Livicated - A Reggae Documentary

The Story of Roger Steffens’ Reggae Archives is a feature documentary 25 years in the making. The film follows Roger Steffens, a reggae historian, author, and broadcaster, who has spent more than five decades preserving the world’s largest reggae archive outside Jamaica. His Los Angeles home holds unreleased Bob Marley and Peter Tosh recordings, lost video masters, rare photos, posters, and artifacts, treasures that reggae’s homeland often failed to safeguard.

Filmed across Jamaica and the U.S., Livicated blends rare archival footage with intimate moments inside Roger’s vault and exclusive interviews with icons like Carlos Santana, Ben Harper, Mutabaruka, and Steel Pulse’s David Hinds, as well as Jimmy Cliff, Cedella Booker Marley, Fela Kuti, Miriam Makeba, and many more.

This is more than a music documentary. It is a race against time, a story of cultural preservation, and a love letter to the enduring revolutionary spirit of reggae.
