The bestseller book “Marzahn, Mon Amour” by Katja Oskamp has become a six-part series. On Thursday there was a preview: Three episodes were shown in the Marzahn Leisure Forum – just a few meters as the crow flies away from the location on the Marzahner Promenade.
With coffee and sandwiches, the guests – to match the content of the series – were able to have their nails done by nail designer Katharina Wagner.
Love declaration of Marzahn
What is it about? In “Marzahn, Mon Amour”, Katja Oskamp from her time as a podiatrist tells in a small salon in Marzahn – a setting that is rarely found in German literature. With a lot of heart and humor, she gives the people in the district a face; In a district that there are countless clichés, which many Berliners have never visited.
Henriette Lippold and Leonie Geisinger implemented the gentle declaration of love of Marzahn in their series. The main character Kathi Grabowski plays the fact that this was successful is mainly due to the cast: Jördi’s drive plays as a reserved mid -forties, who not only has to file the cornea for her older customers, but also has to serve as a grief -boxed aunt.

Jördi’s drive about her role as a pollution
Yvonne Yung Hee Bormann has never been in Marzahn before, but grew up in a prefabricated building in Bremerhaven; A city that is also known for its “rocky corners”, she said. In “Marzahn, Mon Amour” she plays the salon owner Jenny Chan, who tries to keep the shop going despite horrific additional costs and water damage.
GDR raids of acting
In addition to the three main actresses, the ARD also gathers a few acting heavyweights from GDR times: Hermann Beyer, who debuted in 1966 at the Maxim Gorki Theater and was involved in numerous DEFA films, is an aged Stasi Hauswart Weiß in the series, which is more about Kathi’s family than their lovely. “The figure is a real disgusting package,” said the 81-year-old on Thursday.

Carl Heinz Choynski, who belonged to the Berlin Ensemble for 30 years, was also enthusiastic about the film adaptation. It was not difficult for him to think into the role of a demented senior and Marzahner, said the 88-year-old-even if the acting personally holds him. “I have long since exceeded the best before date, I’m not far from 100 and now think about how I can design the second century.”
How did the people in Marzahn actually take up filming? Everyone was very friendly, say the producers. “We had set up the salon very realistically and there was also a telephone number on the window. The fact that numerous people called us to make an appointment was the biggest compliment for us. ”
“Marzahn, Mon Amour” will be available in the ARD media library from March 14th.
