In the category Best Book Fiction, HfG alumnus Oliver Ziegenbalg and Robert Thalheim have received the German Television Award 2022 for "The Billion Dollar Code" (Netflix/Kundschafter Film/Sunny Side Up).

Synopsis

Behind the fictional treatment of the story of young Berlin software pioneers in the 1990s who, a quarter of a century later, are engaged in a patent dispute with Google, lies an extraordinary feat of research. Oliver Ziegenbalg and Robert Thalheim condense the complex events into a richly detailed and enormously entertaining screenplay.
