Let's dance the love out

"Maybe it's better to live in a wild marriage artistically"

Cornelia Froboess is probably the artist in whose life and work the history of the Federal Republic of Germany is reflected like nowhere else. Even as an eight-year-old child star, she made her way into the hearts of rebuilding Germans with "Pack die Badehose ein", later competing for the country at the Grand Prix De La Chanson.
But at the height of her success as an entertainer, "Conny" decided to make a U-turn: Against all odds, she established herself as a character actress, working with Fassbinder and
Everding and Til Schweiger and was a member of the Munich Kammerspiele ensemble for many years. For this book, she granted music historian Matthias Henke access to her private archive and revived her memories in intimate conversations.
