Katrin Ottarsdóttir (born 1957, Tórshavn in the Faroe Islands) is a Faroese movie director and a poet. Katrin Ottarsdóttir went to Denmark in 1976 and is the first person from the Faroe Islands to study at the film school in Copenhagen (1982). In 1989, she received for ''Atlantic Rhapsody'' the first prize for a Faroese film at the film festival Nordische Filmtage. Ottarsdóttir writes her screenplays herself and also leads the direction. She also produced ''Atlantic Rhapsody''. Most actors in Ottarsdóttir's films are Faroese people because the island maintains a rich theater scene and there are many skilled actors there. The Faroe Islands, with their unique landscape, are prominently showcased in her films. The road movie ''Bye Bye Bluebird'' received top honors in 1999 at Nordische Filmtage and the Tiger Award in 2000 at the International Film Festival Rotterdam. Her daughter Hildigunn Eyðfinnsdóttir (born 1975) acted the leading role in it. Since 2007 Katrin Ottarsdóttir has been working on a trilogy of film portraits of Faroese artists. The first of the films No One Can Achieve Perfection - on the sculpturer Hans Pauli Olsen - premiered in January 2008. The second film - A Line A Day Must Be Enough! - on the poet, painter and performance artist Tóroddur Poulsen, premiered in September 2008. The third film in the trilogy - on the writer Jóanes Nielsen will be premiered at the end of 2009. All three portrait films are "one-(wo)man, one camera" productions - directed, shot and edited by the filmmaker herself. In 2011 she published some poems in the Faroese literature magazine Vencil; and in 2012 she published her first collection with poems, written in Faroese, with the title: ''Eru koparrør í himmiríki?'
