Actress (f/d) as "Emma" for a humorous reel series

"Am KÖ-Weg" is a humorous and emotional 8-part reel series that tells the story of everyday life in an old apartment building - where living comfort, investment backlog and interpersonal friction come together. Between improvised repairs, annoyed tenants and clever dissenting voices, it becomes clear that good windows are not a luxury, but a real quality of life. The series combines entertaining storytelling with a subtle brand message and positions Kömmerling as approachable, modern and relevant in the end customer market. Entertain first, sell second - with characters, conflicts and a home that itself becomes the main character.

Narrative world:

The series is set in an old apartment building, which itself becomes the central character and makes the conflicts between old building tradition, living comfort and investment decisions visible. The building reflects the tension between the owners' short-term repair mentality and the demands of the tenants.

Apartment 1 is the home of Ben, Lina and their children. It is filmed as a place that shows the problems of the old building: poor windows, noise from outside, uneven temperatures. Ben analyzes heating costs and temperature differences, Lina struggles with home office disruptions and high costs, the children reflect the simple logic and social reality: primary school children ask directly about physical problems ("Why is the window whistling?"), teenagers experience the impact on privacy, concentration and friends ("Why do we actually live here if there are problems everywhere?"). The apartment shows frustration, the need for change and the emotional everyday life of the residents.

Apartment 2 belongs to the owners Sofia and Daniel. This apartment represents spatial quality, planning and sustainable standards. Sofia attaches great importance to atmosphere, acoustics and materials, while Daniel focuses on building technology and value retention. Scenes here show home offices, measurements and analytical observations - they serve as a contrast to apartment 1 and illustrate how quality and planning influence living comfort.

Ralf Brenner, janitor and co-owner, is regularly on site, although he does not live in the building. He stands for pragmatism, short-term repairs and improvised solutions. His makeshift methods and fear of investment create conflicts and challenges for the tenants. Ralf is reasonably handy, improvises a lot, wants recognition and shies away from costs and risks. Typical scenes show him sealing windows, adjusting heating systems or trying to repair damage with minimal effort.

His daughter Emma Brenner is also regularly in the building. As a Master's student of architecture and sustainability management, she stands for the future, data, facts and sustainable solutions. She acts as a moral compass, provider of facts and emotional bridge between father and tenants. Through her relationship with Lina, she is closely connected to the tenants of apartment 1. Scenes with Emma show analyses, consultations and interventions that cautiously move Ralf in the direction of long-term investments.

Communal areas such as the stairwell, hallway and courtyard connect the apartments. They serve as cinematic meeting places where dialogs, short conflicts and observations take place. This is where the tenants' paths converge and small misunderstandings or informal conversations are captured.
