The film, directed by Luciano Blotta, documents Turbulence’s rise to prominence as an internationally recognized and nationally celebrated reggae artist, and highlights the political and socially active nature of his music. ''Rise Up'' has screened at numerous film festivals including IDFA and Hot Docs, and the film won the Best Music Documentary category at the AFI/Discovery Channel Silverdocs Festival. The film also aired on the BBC and enjoyed a well received theatrical debut in Jamaica, where it was reviewed by the Jamaican Observer as the "Rise of a new Classic". Throughout the film, Turbulence voices the problems of post-colonial corruption, poverty, and violence in Jamaica. In one scene of particular note, Turbulence connects the problem of gun violence to extreme poverty and hunger, explaining “The only thing we see is guns… We don’t see no food over here… I talk over and over. We don’t see no food from the government over here… we only see guns over here. So if we see food over here we’ll leave the guns alone and eat the food…” (Blotta, 2007) ~~<br />~~ ~~<br />~~ ''Rise Up'' has screened at numerous film festivals including IDFA and Hot Docs, and the film won the Best Music Documentary category at the AFI/Discovery Channel Silverdocs Festival.<ref name="jamob" /> The film also aired on the [[BBC]] and enjoyed a well received theatrical debut in [[Jamaica]], where it was reviewed by the [[The Jamaica Observer\|Jamaican Observer]] as the "Rise of a new Classic".<ref name="jamob2">{{cite web \| url=http://www.jamaicaobserver.com/lifestyle/RiseUP_7612593 \| title=The Rise of a new Classic \| publisher=[[Jamaican Observer]] \| date=16 May 2010 \| accessdate=7 June 2011}}</ref> Throughout the film, Turbulence voices the problems of post-colonial corruption, poverty, and violence in Jamaica.<ref name="jamob" /> ~~'''"Notorious"''' –~~ The breakout single, “Notorious”, brought Turbulence and T.H.C.
