Noomi Rapace

She is an Icelandic/Swedish actress. Her father was Rogelio Durán, a Spanish cantaor (Flamenco singer) from Badajoz.

Rapace spent her childhood in Järna and then in Flúðir, Iceland. She lived with her mother and stepfather at Flúðir when she was 5–8 years old and at the age of seven, she was given a non-speaking part in the film Í skugga hrafnsins by Hrafn Gunnlaugsson.
