Darkhead

Nazar's promising career as a hip-hop artist transcends the borders of his native Austria. His socially engaged and controversial lyrics excite young people. He defends himself and all other second-generation immigrants who grow up in a new country far from their parents' culture, finding that they don't completely fit into this society. Darkhead watches Nazar's comeback on the music scene after his release from jail, the recording of his new album, and the aura that surrounds him. Born to Iranian parents, this rapper becomes the role model that the younger generation often misses out on in their daily lives. This is a documentary about rap, about having an opinion of your own, about outsiders, and about the conflict between cultures in modern day Vienna.
