Robin Nazari: From Shepherd in Kurdistan to International Star

Summer job – shepherd in the Kurdish mountains. 'Snabba Cash' actor Robin Nazari shares his tough upbringing in his 'Sommar i P1'.

Artist Robin Nazari grew up in the suburbs but spent every summer as a shepherd with relatives in Kurdistan. His freedom-fighting father died of cancer, and his remarkable mother persevered.

After a turbulent youth, he found success as an actor, rapper, and poet, not only in Sweden but also internationally last year.

Respect for that. I envision a future where an aging Nazari shares his life story with his grandchildren, who attentively absorb every word from their grandfather's mouth, the family saga.

This summer talk is made for them.

Of course, it's not Nazari's fault, it's Bibi Rödöö's. His life experiences cannot be rated; they are invaluable – for him and his closest ones. But what is unique to Nazari is a cliché for the listener, the special that shaped him just a tiresome circle walk in the generic summer talks' eternal purgatory.
