The winner of the GRANIT – Hof Documentary Award 2023, sponsored by the Hermann and Bertl Müller Foundation, FRANK MEYER by Leonhard Hofmann and Riccardo Dejan Jurkovic, will embark on a cinema tour starting Wednesday, April 9, 2025 (dates here).
The film follows former bodybuilder Frank Meyer over ten years as he questions his masculinity and comes to terms with his violent childhood. Unable to accept human affection, he finds comfort in animals. Despite suffering a stroke, heart attack, and kidney failure, he continues to train intensively, hoping to make a comeback.
Furthermore, the film is described as “…the touching portrait of a bodybuilder struggling with himself.” (Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung)
