People – Munich – Sina Reiss is the new one at “Heiland” – Bavaria
Munich (dpa) – “The Savior” has received reinforcements: The actress Sina Reiss has been seen in the role of the new assistant Tilly Vogel in the ARD lawyer series since Tuesday (8:15 pm). “I was immediately on fire,” said the 36-year-old of the German press agency in Munich. “I really like to play female characters who know what they want – and who are full of energy.” Her character is adventurous: “There is no such thing as impossible.”
Sina Reiß, who parodies the Bavarian Green Party politician Katharina Schulze at Munich’s Nockherberg, played in “SOKO Munich” for five years. She has prepared meticulously for her new role in “The Savior – We Are Lawyers”. For example, the actress completed a kind of day internship with the blind lawyer Pamela Pabst, on whose life and work the series and its main character Romy Heiland are based.
“She took me with her into her world and she led me – not the other way around,” said Reiss. “That experience was very important in how I approached this new role.” That is generally the exciting thing about a series about a blind lawyer – “that you get a new perspective”.
