Synopsis:

Yasin El Harrouk is German and a large part of his family is Moroccan. He is proud to carry two different cultures. In Germany he becomes a successful actor and as YONII he becomes a “German rap star”. Yasin works his way through languages, cultures and milieus. Sometimes he is on the stage of German theaters, sometimes he records songs with Sido in the studio. YONII mixes different languages ​​in his songs - his family often helps him write the rap lyrics. Although he benefits from this diversity, he is still always caught between two chairs. He weighs every publication and every offer of a role. His decisions have an impact on his family, his faith – his German or Arab career.
