"Finding Fela" tells the story of Fela Anikulapo Kuti’s life, his music, his social and political importance.
He created a new musical movement, Afrobeat, using that forum to express his revolutionary political opinions against the dictatorial Nigerian government of the 1970s and 1980s.
His influence helped bring a change towards democracy in Nigeria and promoted Pan Africanist politics to the world..
