Dieter Hallervorden turns 90: ARD documentary looks behind the scenes!

Dessau-Roßlau, Deutschland - On September 5, Dieter Hallervorden, one of the most famous entertainer in Germany, will celebrate his 90th birthday. On this special occasion, the ARD has announced an exciting 90-minute documentation entitled "Hallervorden-Didi against the rest of the world". The broadcast will take place on Monday, September 1st at 8:15 p.m. in the first. The documentation will be available in the ARD media library 24 hours beforehand, such as mz.de reported.

The documentation includes exciting insights into Hallervorden's life, including his artist wardrobe, his Berlin home and his private island in Brittany. It is particularly noteworthy that detailed interviews with his family can be heard for the first time in the documentary. These personal perspectives offer a unique view of the man behind the artist and illuminate Hallervorden's childhood in Dessau and his escape from the GDR.

turning points and challenges

The documentary not only represents the humorous facets of Hallervorden, but also addresses more serious aspects of his career. From the beginnings that were characterized by rejections of drama schools, until his breakthrough as a stupid comedian and his return to the cabaret - the film shows turning points in his life. Hallervorden's struggle is also shown to free himself from his comedian image, which made him take on serious roles in films such as "his last race" and "honey in the head". As DWDL , the documentation should not be a nostalgic review, but rather a" film about fight ".

Recently Hallervorden made headlines through controversy as part of an ARD anniversary show, in which he showed Federal Chancellor Friedrich Merz because of his controversial statement. Such events contribute to the fact that Hallervorden remains in conversation and demonstrates his relevance as an artist.

theater in Dessau

Dieter Hallervorden is not only a celebrated entertainer, but also honorary citizen of his hometown Dessau-Roßlau since 2007. There he runs the Central German theater, where he regularly is on stage himself. The fourth season of the theater starts in September, which will surely be marked by his upcoming birthday. For the spectators he remains a real "fighter" and tireless artist, even at the age of 90.

At the end of the documentation, the feature film "His last race" will be broadcast on September 5, in which Hallervorden plays the role of a former Olympic champion. It is a suitable legacy for his birthday, which perfectly complements his work and shows how deeply rooted it is still in German culture.
