New Wave

About This Movie

New Wave is a fascinating blend of comedy and drama, layered with a distinct anarchistic flavor. Set against the backdrop of a conservative society, it cleverly explores the lives of female football players who face not just societal scorn but their own internal struggles. The pacing has this quirky rhythm, sometimes slow to let you savor the characters' journeys, other times frenetic as they navigate their chaotic world. The performances are raw and unapologetic, capturing the essence of rebellion and camaraderie. You can really feel the tension between personal desires and societal expectations, making it a thought-provoking watch despite its comedic undertones. There’s a certain DIY charm to it as well, reminiscent of the era's indie productions.
