Iyke Bede

Nollywood is set to take another bold step onto the international stage with the London premiere of ‘Infant at Heart’, a new production from Afrigold TV Ltd, scheduled for October 18, 2025.

The film, produced by Vera Kanu and written and directed by Aguiyi Ndubuisi, pools an impressive line-up of some of the industry’s most familiar faces. Oby Uzuokwu (also executive producer), Monalisa Chinda, Nkem Owoh, Williams U Hemba, Emeka Enyiocha, Mike Durueke, Emeka Darlington, and Bryan Emmanuel are among the leading actors featured in the production.

Beyond entertainment, ‘Infant at Heart’ is curated as a moving journey into the human condition. At its core, the story navigates the universal themes of loss and truth, placing its characters in situations that test their resilience and force moments of self-confrontation. For audiences, it promises a narrative that is at once deeply personal and broadly relatable.

For Afrigold TV Ltd, the London premiere marks a significant milestone. By situating the launch in one of the world’s most cosmopolitan cities, the company reflects Nollywood’s growing international presence and its ability to tell stories that travel beyond local borders.

The organisers describe the October event as more than a film showing, framing it instead as a cultural moment for Nollywood and its audience in the diaspora. The premiere is expected to draw enthusiasts of African cinema, London-based fans, and a wider community eager to engage with the continuing evolution of Nigerian film.
