About "Rap & Revolution Iran"
The documentary "RAP&REVOLUTION IRAN" is about the history of Iranian rap music in relation to social events and protests. The focus is on socially critical rappers who were either imprisoned in Iran or had to leave the country for their own protection. The documentary features well-known figures such as Xatar, Kool Savas, Nimo, Celo, Justina, Jasmin Shakeri, Basstard, Vahid Silent, Takt32, Sugar MMFK, Jalil, PTK, Amina Aziz, Roxana Samadi and Melissa Khalaj.
Since the beginning of the Mahsa Amini revolutionary movement, thousands of innocent protesters have been arrested in Iran and some have been sentenced to death. Among them are currently the rappers Toomaj Salehi & Saman Yasin.
Toomaj Salehi has already been imprisoned for the third time because of his music and public protest.
Other rappers such as Shahin Najafi have received a death fatwa from the Iranian regime and had to leave the country for their own protection.
