Set against the vibrant landscape of South Florida, and featuring an astonishing ensemble of award-winning actors and breakouts alike, Waves traces the epic emotional journey of a suburban African-American family – led by a well-intentioned but domineering father – as they navigate love, forgiveness, and coming together in the aftermath of a loss. From acclaimed director Trey Edward Shults, Waves is a heartrending story about the universal capacity for compassion and growth even in the darkest of times. “A domestic melodrama in an anguished key, Trey Edward Shults’ Waves is the shattering story of a Florida family undone by a shocking tragedy.” – Manohla Dargis, The New York Times
