I learned early on to get involved and fight for my convictions. I demonstrated for peace, against the Gulf War, for climate protection, against nuclear power, for human rights, against apartheid.

His passion for storytelling took root at an early age. With a vivid imagination and a natural eye for detail, he began capturing moments on camera, writing short stories, and immersing himself in the world of theatre. By the age of 15, Rico directed his first short film, \"The Sandbox\", which not only marked the beginning of his filmmaking journey but also earned him the TLM award for Thuringia\u2019s Best Media Production. While being rejected from film school, but eager to further explore the art of cinema, Rico took on various jobs at leading TV production companies and theaters, and contributed to high-profile projects such as \"Unknown\", \"The Guardian\", and \"Absolution\".<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0<\/span><\/strong><\/p><p><strong>He continued to work as a First Assistant Director on various film projects, including features, shorts, music videos, image films, and commercials.
