Waving
An unflinchingly honest portrayal of the devastating reality behind the misunderstood anxiety disorder of OCD, starring Ralph Ineson ('The VVitch’ - Robert Eggers, 'The Ballad of Buster Scruggs' - Coen Brothers, 'The Green Knight' - James Lowry and 'The Tragedy Of Macbeth' - Coen Brothers).
His worst fears seemingly realised; a distraught father takes one last walk through his ruined world.
For most people, being at the centre of their own world and having a loving family is a wonderful thing. For Charlie, it's literally a nightmare.
Waving explores the anguish of a father in self-imposed exile to shield his family from his obsessive-compulsive disorder and the emotionally destructive thoughts he cannot escape.
Written, Produced & Directed by Rolfin Nyhus, Steven Brumwell
