The Wave (Lmuja) is an Algerian drama directed by Omar Belkacemi, following Redouane, a journalist and writer who returns from Europe to his homeland to investigate a disturbing wave of suicides that swept through the country during the mass worker layoffs of the late 1990s. As he digs deeper into the stories behind the statistics, Redouane confronts the unhealed wounds of an era Algeria would rather forget.
