Daniel Abma 1978-ban született a holland Westerborkban, Drenthe tartományban. Miután megszerezte általános iskolai tanári diplomáját, Berlinbe költözött, hogy fiatal médiamunkásként dolgozzon. Ezt követően filmrendezői tanulmányokat folytatott a potsdami Babelsberg KONRAD WOLF Filmakadémián, ahol elkészítette a Beyond Wriezen (Grimme-díj, 2012), a Havanna Tranzit (2016) és a The Family Approach (2024) című egész estés dokumentumfilmeket. Társadalmi témákat feldolgozó dokumentumfilmjei megfigyelő jellegűek és emberközpontúak. Miközben 2017 óta oktatja is a dokumentumfilm-rendezést és európai filmfesztiválokon tart pitchingworkshopokat, továbbra is dolgozik szabadúszó ifjúsági médiamunkásként.
