Markus Kavka & Elmar Giglinger
The first oral history about music television in Germany
MTViva liebt dich! is an exciting and nostalgic look back at 30 years of German music history - from the 90s to 2010. Presenter and editor Markus Kavka and MTV-und-VIVA ZWEI and VIVA TV program director Elmar Giglinger talk to many famous musicians and presenters from the very beginning: they embark on this unique journey through time with Fettes Brot, Die Ärzte, Scooter, Michael Patrick Kelly, Klaas Heufer-Umlauf, Joko Winterscheidt, Heike Makatsch, Nilz Bokelberg, Mola Adebisi, Die Toten Hosen and many more. Their entertaining stories - in front of and behind the camera - bring German music video culture to life.
A unique and unfiltered look behind the scenes of German music television.
