THE Georgetown Film Festival (GFF) is set to host a film premiere and cocktail fundraiser for local film, ‘Old Toy Train’ at the British High Commissioner’s residence in Bel Air, Georgetown, on Thursday. This premiere is being hosted in collaboration with the British High Commission.

The film was written by Kevin Garbaran and directed by Garbaran and Rae Wiltshire. Local actors Marisa Morgan-Bonie, Renita Doodnauth-Dindyal, Michael Khan and Adhinav Richard are the stars.

The Georgetown Film Festival recently shared a synopsis of the film on its Facebook page. “Evelyn takes her ailing father to his childhood home in the Guyanese countryside. She must make a difficult choice that has the potential to create a deep rift between her family members,” it said.

Additionally, supporters can make a contribution of $10,000 as the Film Festival strives to build local creative capacity. Contributions can be paid via MMG to 626-3139.
