Movie star "status" is something relative new for Florian. Before his current success on big screen, he constructed a solid career on television. His curriculum is full of works in series and films for German TV. Since he came back to Germany, after graduating at the Boston Conservatory and spending some time in New York, his name has being constantly listed to inumerous local productions. Some of them gave him already awards for best performances in, "Verdammt verliebt" (Damn love) 2001, "Meine verrückte türkische Hochzeit" (My Crazy Turkish Wedding) 2007 and "Doctor´s Diary" 2009. The first one was the "Rising Movie Talent Award" and the other two, The Adolf-Grimme-Darstellerpreis.
Picking up one of his past roles, today, I introduce you Malte, from TV series LiebesLeben (Love life). He is a young Berliner who see himself in some trick situations, one night stand, adventure and conflict with best friend Edwin and of course the ex-girlfriend issues, all that presented to the viewers with a natural look and humor. The show is about realtionships and friendship, here is a description of it: "The path to true love has many side streets and even more blind alleys. The romantic comedy series "love life" is located between the heart and diaphragm. It is about the humorous moments of the sometimes desperate search for love, happiness and fulfilling relationship life to couples, singles, newly wed and fresh separate, and about the daily battles between man and woman, dish washing, sex and jealousy - a lot of fun!"
This series is availabe to watch online, but unfortunately only in German. I don't think it's gonna be out there for too long, we know how those things work, which sucks when you are outside the country that broadcast it. By the way, here is my protest: if you want to buy this DVD, or any other from a different country you don't have other option if not buy the equipament too. I'm in region 4 and Germany, Europe are in region 2. However, If you are somewhere on those areas and you have an interest on buy some of Florian's DVDs, you can go to http://www.amazon.de/. They send it to you wherever you are. But be aware that the DVDs are in German and according to the description on the website none of them comeswith subtitle.
Fortunately for others like me, some of his films and series are out there on the virtual world. Forgive us Film makers, actors, movie industry, but this is the only way for some. Here is the link for Liebesleben, it's one season only, with 13 episodes, from six years ago, 2005. Interesting look at Florian's past roles. See if you like it. I did, specially the friendship bond.
