Falco: Ein Leben zwischen Welterfolg und Einsamkeit

Rudi Dolezal didn't just witness music history – he was right in the thick of it. Falco, Freddie Mercury, Whitney Houston, the Rolling Stones, and many more: As a director and producer, Rudi Dolezal worked with some of the greatest artists of our time, both in front of and behind the camera. In our in-depth conversation, he recounts encounters that still resonate with him today: from Falco's death in the Dominican Republic and a mysterious fax, to his personal experiences with Freddie Mercury and Whitney Houston – and his own downfall and new beginning. But it's not just about global superstars and music history. We also talk about success and failure, friendship and loss, about Hans Hölzel, the man behind the persona of Falco – and about what living among extraordinary people does to you.
