The film ethnographically explores what Kawina means to different musicians, producers, DJs, and listeners, highlighting various practices of care in relation to heritage. It approaches cultural heritage not as something static to be preserved, but as a living practice that is experienced, shared, and continuously (re)shaped in the present.

Kawina Collections: Afro-Surinamese Music, Heritage & Spirituality (71 minutes) will begin its international tour in 2026.
