Biografie
Only 62 years old, for her role in FOUR MINUTES Monica Bleibtreu underwent an elaborate make-up procedure to metamorphose into the elderly Prussian piano teacher Traude. Monica Bleibtreu was trained as an actress at the renowned Max Reinhardt-Seminar in her native Vienna, one of Europe’s prime destinations for aspiring thespians. She went on to perform at nearly all of the most prominent theatres across the German-speaking countries.
She became known to a much wider audience in the 1970s when she appeared in numerous TV-movies. In 2005, Ms. Bleibtreu received an award for most successful German TV-actress in honour of her touching portrayal of a farmer who falls prey to cancer in Rainer Kaufmann’s multiple award-winning TV-movie “Maria’s Last Journey.” In the category Best Lead Actress of the Year, she won both the Bavarian and German Television Award as well as the Grimme-Award.
For her role as Katia Mann alongside Armin Mueller-Stahl in the Emmy Award-winning, internationally acclaimed TV-Event “The Mann Family – The Novel of a Century,” she was honoured with the Golden Grimme-Award. Monica Bleibtreu was introduced to an international audience in a strong supporting role next to her son, superstar Moritz Bleibtreu, in Germany’s most celebrated feature film of recent years, Tom Tykwer’s world-famous RUN LOLA RUN.
