Luzi Kryn (born March 14, 1919 in Danzig ; † August 21, 2000 in Kiel ; also: Luzia Kryn ) was a German actress.

Life

Luzi Kryn was born in Danzig as the daughter of a Pole and a German. During the Second World War she was discriminated against by the National Socialists, initially because of her Polish, and in post-war Poland because of her German origin. After many attempts, Kryn and her mother were allowed to leave for West Germany in 1965, where they settled in Kiel. She then worked as a secretary at a forensic medicine institute.

Kryn is often referred to as the “aunt” of the director Rosa von Praunheim , more precisely, she is the niece of his paternal grandfather. Praunheim was already impressed by Kryn during his youth: “My parents were afraid of their visits, they found them terribly vulgar, with too thick make-up, they found their clothes brave. I was excited. Luzi was theater for me. ”He used her as an actress in some of his film productions, best known for her appearances as lovers with Dietmar Kracht in the cult film Die Bettwurst (1971) and the sequel Die Berliner Bettwurst (1973). Luzi Kryn died of liver cancer in August 2000 at the age of 81.
