The Wave (1970)

Julia, a dedicated music student, gets involved in the growing feminist movement on her university campus – a group effort where women step up to bring attention to the widespread harassment and abuse suffered by many of their peers. Amid the excitement of protest marches, Julia joins her friends in dancing and singing, revisiting her own experiences of mistreatment. As she gathers the courage to share her story, she unexpectedly becomes a central figure in the movement-a role she didn't foresee, which forces her to address her identity as a survivor in a society that promises change but remains resistant to it.
