![]() ![]() YouTube Icon YouTube Icon What Was The Real Third Wave? Suddenly they’re smashing neo-nazis’ cars, destroying paper factories, and poisoning the leader of the extreme right. But as more people join The Wave, their symbolic protests against unbridled capitalism and environmental hazards take a dark turn. They parade around a supermarket enrobed in the plastic packaging of the merchandize and steal from fashion retailers who burn rather than donate unsold garments so the needy won’t don designer clothes. ![]() The protests start out relatively harmless. Tristan, with his devil-may-care attitude, incites his new friends to fight back against a system that proves eternally demoralizing. ![]() There’s the biohazardous paper factory that polluted Hagen’s family land, the right-wing extremists that target Rahim on a daily basis, and the very students that perpetuate a climate of racism and exclusion in their high school. Each of them faces their own daily battles. We Are the Wave follows Tristan, a scruffy new kid from juvy, as he sparks a friendship with some unlikely cohorts: prim straight-A student Lea, a skater named Rahim, meek Zazie moonlighting as the mean girls’ favorite punching bag, and Hagen, the bungling recluse.
