Split between the cities of Norwich and Paris, Taryn Everdeen is a musician and filmmaker from the UK, who studied at the École Nationale Supérieure des Arts Décoratifs. After a chance meeting led her to study in France, serendipity has become a key element of her video work. Her latest short film, In Flux, was screened at the Pompidou Centre as part of the Première Fenêtre selection at Cinéma du Réel. It embraces the openness, love and curiosity she feels towards strangers, capturing pieces of lives connected by the flow of a forgotten river.
"Once a tributary of the Seine, now lying forgotten in the sewers of Paris, the ghost of the Bièvre fascinates me. I set off on foot to find its source and its meanders lead me to the people who live along its banks, themselves brought by a current of a different nature, with more distant origins." - Taryn Everdeen
