Marianne Sägebrecht, aka, "mother of Munich's sub-culture", a name that was dubbed to her while she was working as a producer and performer in avant garde theater productions, was discovered by Percy Adlon in 1977. The director gave her a minor part in his feature "The Swing" before he gave her the leading role of Marianne, a mortician, in Zuckerbaby (1985). Followed by the leading role of Jasmin Münchgstettner, a woman who mysteriously appears just to bring luminosity to the old, beaten down, and spiritually deprived Bagdad Café in, Out of Rosenheim (1987). Her performance in the film garnered a German Film Award. Show less «
