Anja & Gerit Kling - Then just untitled

Reading with Anja & Gerit Kling

Germany's most famous pair of sisters have been successful actresses for decades and yet they could hardly be more different. Both Gerit and Anja, who is five years younger, grew up near Potsdam, went through the classic GDR youth and dreamed of a life of freedom from an early age. Five days before the Wall came down, they fled to the West. They only survived the following dramatic days together, as sisters, just as they had supported each other all their lives.

Two sisters, one story and an untitled book

While Gerit was drawn to the stage and in front of the camera from an early age, Anja only came to acting in a roundabout way. They both made careers for themselves, but life in the limelight also has its downsides. "This profession is the most beautiful in the world when it works, and the cruelest when it doesn't," say the Kling sisters.

Anja and Gerit Kling talk wittily, touchingly and always honestly about the highs and lows they have mastered as sisters. They talk about how the best way to get through life is to not always take yourself so seriously. And they reveal how to write a book together when you can't even agree on a title...

"Dann eben ohne Titel" is a wild journey through the time of change, the 90s and the present. Written in dialog form, it makes everything seem very lively. A wonderful experience with two very likeable (...) actresses." Markus Lobsien, NDR 90,3 (May 27, 2020)
