Desc: Helmut Berger, meine Mutter und ich: Directed by Valesca Peters. With Helmut Berger, Bettina Vorndamme, Karla Vorndamme, Ophelia Gassmann. It all started with a spontaneous Google research: What does Helmut Berger actually do? Bettina Vorndamme, the mother of director Valesca Peters, surfed the net one night after being separated from her partner and was downright shocked by what she was reading about the once "most beautiful man" of the 1960s and 1970s.
