Director Biography:
Ingo J. Biermann studied directing at the German Film & Television Academy in Berlin (DFFB). During his period in the film academy he produced and directed seven feature-length films, among them several documentaries about music. Nowadays, he works on films in Norway and with Norwegian musicians. NORDLAND is his first feature film.

Director Statement:
“All my films are dealing with the matter of who you really are – and who you actually could be, how can you organize your life in a way that is true to your inner voice. My films are about intuition and how you can find it. Which is of course inevitably connected with this film’s pivotal question of love and to the central question in every relationship: Who am I – in relation to you?”
