After the great success of the album “Auserwählt” with Uschi Brüning, Manfred Krug planned a new CD for his 80th birthday. But he died and the recordings remained unfinished. The planned tour was nevertheless realized thanks to the support of long-time companions and filmed as a documentary. Before the film starts, his son Daniel Krug reads anecdotes from the book “Manfred Krug: ‘I just remembered…’ - A miscellany”.
His Tatort partner Charles Brauer leads the program, which is peppered with many anecdotes. His daughter Fanny and his long-time stage partner Uschi Brüning, together with Thomas Putensen and the tried and tested Manfred Krug Band, bring the titles of the new CD and other favorite songs of the actor to the audience. Everyone involved has entered Krug’s world, tracked down the feelings behind the stories and created their own version. And that is precisely why Manfred Krug steps out from behind the recordings and is more present than ever before.
Before the film starts, his son Daniel Krug reads some anecdotes from the book, Manfred Krug: "Manfred Krug: 'I just remembered ...' - A miscellany", which was published in January 2024.
Manfred Krug was a tireless collector. Always on the hunt for gems, insights and anecdotes. This volume contains the most beautiful finds and flashes of inspiration from his estate, illustrated with etchings by Moritz Götze.
As a passionate flea market goer, Manfred Krug collected very special artifacts and curiosities. He read the newspaper, watched TV or listened to people with great interest. He loved daring animals, hearty food and small children. He was particularly interested in the passage of time, in clocks and in the universe. This miscellany is an extremely amusing testimony to his browsing, his curiosity and a passion for everything tasteful. The celebrated painter and graphic artist Moritz Götze, who has already illustrated Krug's poems, has illustrated this gift book with his etchings.
