KINO joins the party and takes a look at the winning entries.
Little Big Man -- The Characters of Axel Prahl
Axel Prahl is the face of the so-called "little man" in German cinema. Prahl came to Berlin as a theatre actor in the 1990s. Director Andreas Dresen discovered him, casting him in the supporting role of a policeman in his hit film «Night Shapes». German TV viewers know him for playing another policeman -- an unkempt and unorthodox cop in the well-known TV series Tatort. But Prahl prefers playing the ordinary guy, as he has in prize-winning films such as «Grill Point» (Berlinale Silver Bear, 2002) and as he does again in the new production «You Are Not Alone». KINO with a profile on this extraordinary character actor.
