Call Me Waya (2025)

Call Me Waya is about an octogenarian, self taught "outsider" artist living in the small town of Remedios, Cuba. Despite his age, he is prolific, producing fantastical, childlike work that often incorporates found materials, a necessary approach reflecting the state of widespread scarcity in Cuba. The film shows much of Wayacón's extensive body of work, his struggle with substance abuse, his volatile relationship with his family, and the role of Sandra Levinson of the Center for Cuban Studies in bringing Cuban art to the United States and beyond.
