Sylvie Winter was born on 12 August 1945 in Teplice-Sanov, Czechoslovakia [now Teplice, Czech Republic ]. In May 1969, Sylvie Winter, who had long been accustomed to cameras, stepped in front of a film camera for the first time when she played the second female lead role of Luba in Thomas Schamoni's production of A Large Grey-Blue Bird . The lead role was played by Klaus Lemke , whose "muse" and temporary partner Winter would become at the beginning of the new decade. In 1971 he gave her the female lead role in his production Love, as Beautiful as Love and two years later cast her in the film quasi-portrait Sylvie , in which she plays herself as a sought-after jet-set model. [1] Just one year later, in 1974, Sylvie Winter, exhausted by the hype surrounding her, turned away from acting completely and left Germany.
