Anna Bederke

Actor · Born January 1, 1981 (45) · Hamburg, Germany

Born in Hamburg, Anna Bederke discovered her enthusiasm for film at a young age and shot her first short film at 16. She studied directing at Hochschule Bildende Kunst Hamburg (HfbK) with tutors including Wim Wenders and directed several short films. A short time later she swapped being behind the camera to acting in front of the camera. Fatih Akin cast her for "Soul Kitchen", for which Variety praised her debut with a "real discovery". This was followed by many collaborations with renowned German directors including Matthias Glasner, Marco Kreuzpaintner, Markus Goller, Sönke Wortmann and others.

Percentiles are each film's standing among all films on MovieCove; the typical film is the median, so one outlier cannot drag it. Percentiles and reviewer scores count the films IMDb credits them on, for now; the Midcredits score bands, the shape of the crowd and the two cards count their MovieCove titles, shows included (a show ranked among shows), appearances as themselves left out. A descriptor is the shape of a title's IMDb rating distribution against the catalog; "most divisive" needs a spread wider than half of all titles, and a card names only a principal credit: a craft role, and on a show a crew role or a run of episodes, never a courtesy credit or a one-off guest spot.
