Writing is structure in which I can order, interpret and pass on my impressions, feelings, encounters and thoughts. Writing is a dream in which I can create worlds beyond our everyday perception. The depths of the human psyche never stop fascinating me, and I love diving deep into my characters and their relationships with one another. Inspiration is everywhere: a sentence I overhear in passing, an unfamiliar profession in a Japanese short story or a petrol can behind my chiropodist\u2019s seat \u2013 anything can become a

In her work, she connects personal experience with social questions and develops multi-layered characters and emotional stories from them. Recently, she has also discovered children\u2019s film for herself, where she especially enjoys combining humour with fantastical storytelling.<\/p><p>She co-wrote 303, which opened the Generation section of the 68th Berlinale in 2018 and won the DACHS Screenplay Award. Her screenplay for the feature film SMILE was produced as part of ZDF\u2019s \u201cDas kleine Fernsehspiel\u201d. She is also the creator of the ARD mini-series NAKED, starring Svenja Jung, which deals with themes such as sex addiction and co-dependency and was nominated for the Grimme Prize in 2026.<\/p><p>Alongside her work as a writer, Silke Eggert also works as a freelance lecturer in creative writing and bodywork.
