He feels connected to international author movies with a special bonding to the southern part of Latin America. He has been working with German film makers such as Christian Schwochow, Pia Marais, Michael Koch, Ulrich Köhler and recently Andreas Dresen. Friedel is member of the European and the German film academy as well as of his home football team 1: FC Köln. He has two children and spends a lot of time on bicycles.
