Started her acting career in the theatre with "Compagnie Timothee Laine" and with the "Theater Labor Warschau".
She had her first experiences with film as an assistant of Jacques Rozier.

Her debut as a film actress was "Wings of Desire".
She co-authored "Until the end of the World" with Wim Wenders and with him travelled around the world in search of locations for the project.

Wim Wenders about 'Until the End of the World':
"Solveig Dommartin and I had written the story of our film together, and we thought that we only had the right to enter into such a sacred area like a persons's dreams, if we would bring something into the work that was sacred to ourselves".
