Description
Skater AJ and surfer Kristen find each other through their shared passion for the ocean. What should have been a typical teenage love takes a turn when Kristen falls ill. A beautiful mix of 2D animations and 3D tools with shots of the confectionery pink and blue skies of California, colorful skateparks and the unpredictable movements of the waves: every frame shows a unique animation style that goes hand in hand with a bittersweet coming-of-age story, in which surfing becomes a source of connection and comfort. In Waves is an animated film that will captivate you emotionally.
