About Ganz der Papa
The former professional footballer Alex Brehm has taken care of his daughter Charlie since the accidental death of his wife. The girl suffers greatly from the loss of her beloved mother, but is an avid footballer and finds distraction from her grief, at least for a short while. Also, she is "completely the daddy" - until Alex learns one day after a blood test of his daughter that neither he nor his deceased wife Charlie's biological parents can be.
Directed by Matthias Steurer, Ganz der Papa leans on a strong ensemble — Jörg Schüttauf, Julia Richter, Peter Franke — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about tv movie titles of 2012.
