About me

My name is Abdul Samiu Saliou.
I’m very passionate about art especially film.
I was born in Ghana and have been living in Germany for the past 21 years. After spending most of my childhood on stage I decided to expand my experience by studying acting.
To further my career and to be closer to the film industry, I moved to Berlin.
Since then I have worked as an actor, stand-in and extra on multiple projects.
