A Conversation about Darkest Miriam with Naomi Jaye and Tom Mercier [Tribeca]

In this interview, we talk about the film Darkest Miriam, having its World Premiere at Tribeca 2024. I'm joined by director Naomi Jaye and the lead actor, Tom Mercier (Mercier joined via WhatsApp). Movie description: Packed with literary and musical allusions, this engrossing dark fairy tale introduces us to Miriam the librarian, who finds love at the same time that she starts receiving threatening notes from a mystery stalker within the library stacks. We talk about why Naomi wanted to make the film and how she went about creating a library on film that felt real. We also dive into the psychology of Tom's character, Janko, and how he sees the world. You can find updates about the film on Instagram @tremendousfilms or @naomirjaye. #tribecafilmfestival
