Olmo Omerzu

Born 1984 in Ljubljana. He made his first steps in
film making during his studies at FAMU film school
in Prague. His first two films premiered at no less
than Berlinale and San Sebastian film festivals,
while his third feature, Winter Flies, landed him the
best director award at Karlovy Vary International
Film Festival in 2018, 6x wins at Czech Lions film
awards, and a selection at Toronto IFF 2018. Olmo’s
films explore human nature and family relationships,
and people trapped in their own expectations of
themselves.
