Old Man River 2026

Directed by Iyabo Kwayana

Old Man River continues Iyabo Kwayana’s exploration of lineage, memory and inheritance through an intimate portrait of her father, a 100-year-old political activist and nation builder from Guyana who helped found the country’s first multiethnic political party. The film sits beside him as he reflects on a lifetime shaped by political struggle, idealism, sacrifice and the contradictions within revolutionary movements.
