Muschirf Shekh Zeyn was born in 1988 in a Kurdish family and grew up in Kamishli, Syria. He has been interested in literature, painting, and woodwork since he was a child, writing short stories at a very early age and discovering a passion for cinema. He then studied architecture in Syria and specialized in urban sociology. He graduated in the middle of the Syrian Civil War, fled from various countries, and had to work many jobs to keep his head above water. After two years of flight, he arrived in Bremen, Germany, and started making films.
