Homegrown on a row crop farm in southeastern North Carolina, Sydney Hendrix has been peddling tall tales as far back as she can remember. Her love for film all started when she stumbled upon TCM while home sick flipping through channels. Since that fateful afternoon, she's been honing her voice as a writer and a director with a primary interest in genre films and sharp dialogue. Influenced by Greta Gerwig, David Fincher, The Coen Brothers, David Cronenberg, and Paul Schraeder just to name a few — Sydney Hendrix recently graduated from the MFA program at FSU College of Motion Picture Arts as a directing specialist and is now based in Los Angeles.

“I’m going on this little thought-voyage, and some things are disturbing me, some things are confusing me, some things are delighting me unexpectedly, and here it is. Maybe you will come on this trip with me. Maybe you will feel the same, and maybe you won’t.” - David Cronenberg
