Waves

About This Movie

Waves (2022) presents a deeply personal exploration of loss and resilience through portraits of extraordinary women. The pacing ebbs and flows, mirroring the emotional tide of the filmmaker’s journey after her mother’s passing. It’s a collage of voices—scientists, poets, activists—each narrative weaving together a rich tapestry of feminist thought and action. The atmosphere is intimate, almost like a conversation over coffee, where each story feels like a revelation. There's a raw honesty in the performances that’s refreshing, and the practical effects—like archival footage juxtaposed with intimate interviews—add a layer of depth. What stands out is the film’s commitment to showcasing diverse perspectives in a world that often overlooks them.
