A new trailer for the festival knockout Waves has been dropped online. The film premiered at the Telluride Film Festival last month to rave reviews, and has continued on a festival tour to even greater applause. Expect this to hit big during awards season.
Waves comes to the screen from writer and director Trey Edward Shults and stars Kelvin Harrison, Jr., Lucas Hedges, Taylor Russell, Alexa Demie, with Renée Elise Goldsberry and Sterling K. Brown.
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.
Waves starts to roll out into cinemas from November. More as it comes our way. Here’s the trailer.
