With films such as Ende der Saison (DE 2001), Sie haben Knut (DE/AT 2003) or Sommer ’04 (DE 2006), which have been guests of the Diagonale in their time, the German filmmaker (born 1971 in Balingen, Baden Wurttemburg) has created outstanding works ranging between cinema and television. His prize-winning works are impressive above all for their precise
observation of milieu and the multilayered portraits of his figures. He will be giving a workshop
(Friday, 20th March, Space04, 4.00pm) together with his constant writer Daniel Nocke where he will be presenting his latest film Dutschke as a work in progress and talking about his specific way of working.
