About Anam's Wake

“Death isn't the end. It's a negotiation.”

Anam's Wake is a 2026 Swahili thriller film directed by Likarion Wainaina. The cast is led by Marima Wanjiru, Samson Omondi and Peter Kawa.

Anam, a professional mourner, takes on the task of guiding a wealthy family through a funeral ritual for its recently deceased patriarch but she soon discovers that the ritual may be just as much about her confronting her past encounter with death as it is about the family coming to terms with long-buried secrets.
