The "Police call: the day will come" (June 14th, the first) says goodbye to Veit Bukow, the father of Commissioner Alexander "Sascha" Bukow (Charly Hübner, 47). The once clever half-world size does not survive his last deal. Veit Bukow was embodied in the crime thriller in Rostock (since 2010) from the beginning by actor Klaus Manchen (83), born in Wroclaw, Poland in 1936.
Award-winning artist
Klaus Manchen learned his profession at the State Drama School in Berlin-Niederschöneweide, which would later become Ernst Busch Academy of Drama. After graduation, he played in various theaters in Berlin. He has received many awards for his work, including the "Critics' Prize of the Berliner Zeitung" (1969), "Silver Laurel of Television from the GDR" (1975) and the "Art Prize of the GDR" (1979).
In the cinema, he first made a name for himself in DEFA productions. After the reunification, he was seen in many films by successful directors: "Aimée and Jaguar" (director: Max Färberböck, 1999), "Der rote Kakadu" (director: Dominik Graf, 2006), "Boxhagener Platz" (2010, director: Matti Geschonneck) etc.
On television, Klaus Manchen enthused among others in the TV series "Großstadtrevier", "Dr. Sommerfeld – Neues vom Bülowbogen" and "Die Stein".
He says about Veit Bukow
"Veit Bukow is a crook, but I never played the crook. If all crooks looked like they do in most films, all bad guys in politics and society would be immediately recognizable," said Klaus Manchen. "Veit Bukow cares for his family to the point of no longer", the actor enthuses in conversation with the broadcaster about his previously recurring role in the Rostock "police call". Veit Bukow was a person with heart and soul.
