Piotr’s debut feature film, About a Hero, which opened the 2024 International Documentary Film Festival Amsterdam (IDFA), is an adaptation of a script written by an AI trained on the work of Werner Herzog. The ironically self-reflective narrative it produced is intertwined with a series of interviews with artists, philosophers and scientists reflecting on the notion of originality, authenticity, immortality, and the soul in the age of AI. He is a graduate from The Academy of Fine Arts in Vienna, where his diploma film On High in White Tomorrows was awarded the Wurdigung Prize. His work focuses on the blurred lines between reality and fiction.
