Asian Dreamers 2016 - ARASH IZADI

Distressed by the fact that hip hop music is illegal in his home country of Iran, aspiring music producer Arash Izadi finally arrived in New York last year as a refugee. In the birthplace of hip hop music, his new journey has begun. He's producing a song with a local rapper. Titled The Refugee, it's close to his heart, as the melody and the beats remind him of the time he spent being a refugee. This is an NHK World TV documentary. CAMERAMAN: Robin C. Adams
