Sisterqueens


A four-year documentary telling the story of three young girls in Berlin stepping into hip-hop culture and forming their own rap group.


The Sisterqueens documentary tells the story of three young girls, Jamila, Rachel, and Faseeha, who take their first steps into hip-hop culture in Berlin and form their own rap group. The documentary follows these young girls' lives, family life, relationships with their siblings, and their chosen hip-hop families for four years. The girls learn a lot about both rap and self-respect during this process. They reflect their own female stories, their struggles with social injustices and their own identities, their views on the police, and their relationships with art in their raps. Their passion for hip-hop culture and their ability to express themselves through rap music attract the attention of those who watch them. The documentary also showcases the young girls' feminist perspectives and their awareness of women's rights.
