biography

From 1989 to 1995 , Stefan Rogall studied journalism , German and English at the Westphalian Wilhelms University in Münster . He has been working as a film critic for Westfälische Nachrichten , film-dienst and epd film since 1992 . From 1994 to 1997 he directed the English-language theater group at the University of Münster.

Since 1998 he has been working as a freelance screenwriter, editor and dramaturge.

His first screenplay was made into a television film by Florian Richter in 2002, Zimmer der Angst . In 2006, Rogall was awarded a Grimme Prize for “Police Call: 110: Little Woman” .

In 2010 Rogall made his debut as a writer with the novel comedy In love, snowy, enchanted . His second novel Determined for you was also published in 2011 by Random House Imprint Diana Verlag. Due to the limited income opportunities as a fiction writer, he has since worked mainly as a screenwriter.

For WDR he developed the crime TV series Meuchelbeck (1st season 2015 and 2nd season 2019), which is characterized by Niederrhein regionality and black humor , which reminds neither of Murder with a View nor of Lilyhammer , but of the eight-part Austrian miniseries Braunschlag and the was written entirely by him. Rogall is sometimes praised by television critics, especially for his “brilliantly funny dialogues”. The film review also says of him that he "develops his characters thoroughly (.) And the humor then naturally emerges from their thinking".
