You acted in many international productions and met many great actors. Which colleague impressed you the most when you worked with them?
Working on "Crossing Lines" with Donald Sutherland was certainly a special experience. The man was already a legend when I was born. And during the three seasons of filming, it was always a gift to be able to play with him. You often see that the very successful colleagues in particular are very approachable and unpretentious. And as soon as the camera is rolling, everyone tries to do their best.
What else fascinated you about him?
He once said something that I find very remarkable: "As an actor, it's always about finding the truth in every scene." So it's not about playing solos as virtuosically and egotistically as possible, but about always putting yourself at the service of the story. That sounds logical at first, but is often not self-evident.

How do you think everything could go down the drain?
Just vote for Trump, he'll privatise America completely without those pesky human rights and nonsense like equality before the law.
Is that somehow good?
Yes, of course, if you're rich as shit and your company is then treated like a natural person.
Or you're in the inner circle of the future despot, sorry president!
that doesn't sound so good!
He has said that he will only play the dictator for one day!
This is historically a problem, nobody plays a dictator for one day.

What has become of the ideals when a man of his ilk without any morals or understanding of the law can become the top candidate of a former Democratic Party? A country without value based on equality and equality before the law can become America, but then China will rise so fast that the rest of our democracy will be dizzy.
China is better at dictatorship and also has all the raw materials and means of production.
America will become the keleptodracy of a nazism obsessed orange hairy old man and his minions and hangers on.
