Christina Hoffmann, the 45-year-old actress who plays Detective Judith Moln in the "In Truth" series, shares a peculiar affection for France. Despite being quite fluent in French, she still feels at home in France every time she visits, describing it as "like I'm home again." This emotion, she says, isn't tied to a specific location or the French cuisine, but rather, it's an emotional connection she can't explain.
The actress also appreciates the Saarland and its people. She loves the welcoming atmosphere and the approach of 'take a seat, join in – share your tale.' This barrier-free approach of the Saarlanders makes her feel at ease.
Christina Hoffmann will soon reprise her role as Judith Moln, alongside Commissioner Freddy Breier and former investigator Markus Zerner, in the eighth case of "In Truth." The episode titled "Between Law and Justice" is already available for streaming. The series will air on ZDF at 8:15 PM on August 31.
While there's no specific explanation for Christina Hoffmann's emotional connection to France, it could be influenced by the positive stereotypes and cultural connotations associated with 'Frenchness.' Studies suggest that a French accent is often perceived more favorably than others due to these positive associations, such as aesthetic sensitivity and refined taste. This might be an indirect factor contributing to Christina Hoffmann's emotional attachment to France.
