Nastassja Nakshinski

History knows many examples of how people get into the cinema, bypassing the stage of training in specialized institutions. A similar story happened with Nastassja Aglaia Nakshinsky, who became famous under a pseudonym taken in honor of her father. Nastasya was born in West Berlin. It happened on January 24, 1961.

The girl's parents were the notorious actor Klaus Kinski (Doctor Zhivago, Venus in Furs, Aguirre, God's Wrath, Nosferatu - the Ghost of the Night) and shop assistant Bridget Ruth Toki. The girl received the name in honor of the heroine of the novel "The Idiot" of the Russian classic, whom her father was so fond of. Later, this love for Dostoevsky will be taken over by Nastasya herself.

When the girl was 7 years old, her parents separated. Together with her mother, she moved to Munich, where she lived until 1971. In 1971, the girl moved to her father in Venezuela, but a year later she returned to Munich.

In those days, the financial situation of her family was much lower than average, so the girl had to steal food and things from the shops, travel on public transport without a ticket, run away from the conductors, earn money with anyone, starting as a cleaner in restaurants and ending as an animal trainer assistant in a circus. She had to live in a van, where, in addition to her family, her mother's lover lived.

From 1974 to 1976, the girl leads a riotous lifestyle and often does not appear at home. But her mother has absolutely nothing to do with this. In 1977, the girl barely manages to graduate from the Willie Graf High School. By this time, Nastasya has already managed to establish a love relationship with the director Roman Polanski, starred in a photo shoot for the magazine "Vogue", as well as in her first film "False Movement".

In 1975, at a festive party with friends, Nastasya and Lisa Kreutzer, the then famous actress and wife of director Wim Wender, met. Like Polanski, Kreutzer notices the girl's natural beauty and photogenicity, and then invites her to star in the upcoming film adaptation of Goethe's work, which her husband is going to stage. Nastasya agrees for the sake of money, but her debut in the world of cinema has already won the Deutscher Filmpres award.

In 1976, on the advice of Roman Polanski, he moved to Los Angeles for six months to take acting courses at Lee Strasberg's studio. Returning home in 1977, she starred in Wolfgang Petersen's "Certificate of Maturity", where Nastasya gets the role of a schoolgirl who secretly meets with her teacher. For this film she received the Gold Otto Award.

In the same year, Nastasya starred in her first English-language film, the Hammer studio horror film, The Daughter of Satan. This time, the girl had to play the role of a nun who became a victim of Satanists, and Christopher Lee became her co-star in the film.

1978 was marked by three events for the girl. First, the comedy Passion Flower Hotel, in which Kinski was given her first major role. Secondly, one more gold "Otto" award. And thirdly, three months in a juvenile prison. After prison, the girl decides to end her criminal past and connections.

In 1979, she moved to England for several months to prepare for the title role in the film adaptation of Tom Hardy's novel "Tess of the d'Herberville". In addition to weaning off her accent, the girl works on a farm (like her heroine) and also attends theaters.

The film Tess, directed by Roman Polanski, comes out the same year. Initially, they did not want to release it in America due to the persecution of the director in the United States, but they still allowed it. And for good reason - the film was nominated for an Oscar in six categories. Polanski did not go to the ceremony for obvious reasons, so Nastasya was invited as a guest.

The role of Tess brought Kinski worldwide fame, a Golden Globe Award for Best Debut, a Cesar nomination and many new acquaintances. In the same year, the actress appeared naked in a photo of Richard Avedon in the arms of a snake. The poster with this photo was sold in large circulation.

In 1982, Nastasya meets Francis Ford Coppola. This happens at the Cannes Film Festival, where the director invites the girl to star in his film "From the Heart". In the same year, the girl starred in a remake of the classic horror film "Cat People" by Jacques Turner, filmed forty years earlier. The new production is directed by Paul Schroeder. The film was well received by critics and audiences and received a nomination for a Saturn Award.

In 1984, several films were released with the participation of the actress - "Paris, Texas" by the already familiar Wenders, "I Swear to Infidelity", where Armand Assante appeared in addition to her, and the film "Mary's Beloved", which was shot by Russian director Andrei Konchalovsky. After these tapes, the girl takes a short pause, acting in cameo roles in Italian and French thrillers and dramas. An example of such a movie is "Harem" with Ben Kingsley.

A full-fledged return took place in 1987 - for her role in Diseases of Love, the girl received the Cesar award in the Best Actress category. The following year, she already takes part in the Cannes Film Festival as a member of the jury. 1989 and 1991 were held under the banner of the adaptation of Russian classics - "Spring Waters" by Turgenev and "Humiliated and Insulted" by Dostoevsky.

After that, the girl begins to appear mainly in American films like "Falling Speed" (1994) with Charlie Sheen, film adaptations of the novels of Daniela Steele "The Ring" (1996) and Linda La Plante's "The Godmother" (1997). The most recent roles of the actress to date are "Empire Inland" (2006) by David Lynch and "Stars Appear at Night" (2013). It is also known that Tarantino called Nastasya in Inglourious Basterds, but it did not work out.

The girl's first serious relationship was an affair with the director Polanski. However, the couple did not dare to officially register them. In 1984, Nastasya marries producer Ibrahim Mussa and gives birth to a son, Alyosha. Two years later, the couple moved to Switzerland, where they had a second child - daughter Sonya, who later became a model.

Six years later, Nastasya and Ibrahim are filing for divorce. The children stay with the actress. By this time, Kinski had already struck up a relationship with the composer Quincy Jones, from whom she gave birth to her daughter Kenya in 1993. But in 1997, Kinski broke up with him.

In 2011, the actress became a member of the American Film Academy and practically stopped acting. From 2015 to the present, Kinski has been filming her documentary "Nothing is Impossible", which she plans to release in 2018.

In 2017, she came to Russia to an exhibition of Nikas Safronov's paintings, appeared in Armenia at the Golden Apricot film festival in Yerevan, as well as at the Locarno festival in the city of the same name in Switzerland, where a retrospective of films with Nastassia Kinski herself was held.
