Sonja Kerskes is a convincing character actress with a mixture of directness and subtle nuances. A key reference point is DIE HAUT DER ANDEREN (2018, directed by Thomas Stiller), a psychological drama in which she complements the ensemble cast led by Oliver Mommsen and Isabel Thierauch and makes her mark with her clear presence. Her filmography shows her continuous work in cinema and television: In Bruder Schwester Herz, she displays an unobtrusive naturalness in a modern relationship drama, while early cinema roles such as Der große Bagarozy demonstrate her versatility right from the start. Kerskes is also present in the series sector; appearances in international formats such as Berlin Station document her confidence in different tones – from quiet, realistic observation to concise supporting roles in suspenseful material. Her profile: credible character portrayal, controlled emotionality, and a flair for realistic milieus. This combination makes her a reliable choice for projects that focus on psychological accuracy and prioritize ensemble acting over effects. With a repertoire that favors subtle but lasting roles, Kerskes remains a visible actress whose scenes resonate even without great pathos.
