Trivia

Has been playing piano since the age of five.

Speaks German (native), English fluently (hardly accent), French (basics).

When "Goodnight Mommy" won the competition of the 25th Int Film festival of Ljubljana, the Jury statement was "For the condensed complexity of its storytelling, its refreshingly assertive approach to the critically neglected horror genre, for retaining several ambiguities at once and for its excellent performances - particularly that of Susanne Wuest, who for much of the film must convey so much with so little.".

Has been nominated 'Best Young Actress' for the Undine Award 2005 for 'Antares'.

"Goodnight Mommy" is, after "Antares", already the second film being submitted for an Oscar nomination (Best Foreign Language Academy Award) with Susanne Wuest in a leading role.
