Overview
Xatar’s way from the ghetto to the top of the charts is as dramatic as it is daring: Fatih Akin’s new film is based on the autobiographical novel »Alles oder Nix« (»All or Nothing«) of the probably most authentic exponent of German gangsta rap. From the hell of an Iraqi jail, Giwar Hajabi (Emilio Sakraya) emigrated to Germany as a young boy with his family in the mid-1980s and has to start right at the bottom. There are opportunities, but far more obstacles. Giwar’s rise from petty criminal to major dealer is swift. Until one shipment goes missing. In order to clear his debts with the cartel, he plans a legendary gold heist. But just as everything goes wrong, another door opens for Giwar thanks to his passion for music …

Like when the headliner turns out to be the opening act. Scarface Jr is the story of a petty criminal who steals gold and writes rap in prison. Fatih Atkin's subject matter along with his hit and miss directing make this a minor outing for the filmmaker who have us the glorious filth opera of The Golden Gloves.

A celebration of criminality featuring Arab and Turks in Germany and beyond. Great acting, great on-site scenery spanning Europe and the Middle East. An epic sweep of events, but of course we must have some moral reservations about the influence of this work on children. WHERE IS THE GOLD?
