Silvana. A female rapper like no other
With her uncompromising lyrics against all forms of oppression, Swedish rapper Silvana Imam has taken Scandinavia by storm.
She uses her razor-sharp tongue to spotlight movements taking place in today's society, embodying the voice of a new generation along the way.
This film follows Silvana from underground artist to icon, as she wins several major awards and forms an almost mythical relationship with Swedish pop-artist, Beatrice Eli.
