The Waves is an intriguing exploration of grief and longing, as we follow Miguel on his poignant journey to Argeles-sur-Mer. The film captures that quiet, introspective atmosphere, almost meditative at times, reflecting on the weight of loss. The pacing is deliberate, allowing viewers to sit with Miguel's emotions as he navigates not just his own pain, but also the stories of the refugees around him. It's a raw portrayal of human resilience amidst hardship, with performances that feel genuine, almost like peeking into someone’s life. The practical effects, though subtle, ground the film in a reality that resonates. It’s distinctive for its contemplative nature and how it intertwines personal and collective narratives.
