Structured as a diptych, Waves tells the story of a suburban African-American family navigating the complexities of success, pressure, and tragedy. The film is distinctively divided into two halves. The first follows Tyler (Kelvin Harrison Jr.), a high school wrestler whose life is dictated by the crushing weight of expectations from his father (Sterling K. Brown) and a career-threatening injury. This segment is filmed with frantic energy, using aspect ratio changes and a saturated color palette to reflect Tyler’s spiraling mental state.

There is no conventional conflict; instead, the "waves" of the title refer to the rhythmic, overlapping surges of memory—love, betrayal, political awakening, and maternal grief washing over the protagonist.

Waves (2019) is not a film for entertainment but for communion. Lana Gogoberidze uses cinema as a medium to hold a conversation with the dead, particularly her daughter. The result is a haunting, patient, and profoundly beautiful work that asks: What do we do with a love that has nowhere left to go? The answer, according to the film, is to turn it into art—to watch the waves, knowing they will never bring back what they took, but loving them anyway.
