Berben is currently handling production on Männersache, by and starring Mario Barth, and (in collaboration with Martin Moszkowicz) on Sönke Wortmann’s intriguing Pope Joan, which is based on Donna Cross’ bestselling book about the female pope. He also continues his activities for MOOVIE, with a mini-series by Doris Dörrie.
