Cappi worked on stage and in front of the camera as a classic small actor. Especially in the early 1920s and then again in the third. He was rich in several movies, most recently with appearances of a few seconds. He embodied an organ grinder as well as an artistic director, a theater porter as well as an office worker.
From 1940 to 1943 he is said to have served in the Wehrmacht, despite demonstrably intense film activity and advanced age. His last sign of life comes from Linz, where he lived in 1944. After that his track is lost.
