Otwin Biernat was born in Graz, Austria. He is related to Arnold Schwarzenegger. In 2009, Otwin moved to Berlin and in 2011, “Codewort Mr. Bean” which he co-directed was selected for the Berlin International Film Festival.
Seeking international experience, Otwin moved to the Middle East in late 2011, where he worked for television. However, the call of filmography was too strong, and in 2014, Otwin made his way back to Europe. He then co-produced the movie “Homesick” which had its world premiere at the Berlin International Film Festival in 2015.
Capping off his experience in film over the years, Otwin completed his first feature film “Point of View” in 2017.
In this movie Otwin fuses film, satire with unconventional experimental storylines and cinematic techniques, creating a holistic art form that captivates and surprises viewers through engaging points of views. Within the first 80 minutes the fim has not cut. It won several awards all around the globe.
Beside his work as a director and videographer Biernat collaborates with other associations, he organises film festivals like the Pompei Street Festival, the Neapolis Persia film festival and the Casoria Film Festival which was a big success. They were all funded by the Campania film commission.
He has been a jury member of many film festivals (Antakya International FIlm Festival, Pompei Street Art Festival, Kinoduel International Film Festival etc...) and he is the jury president of FotoFilm International Film Festival in Istanbul.
