It’s the final day of deadCenter 2021 and we couldn’t close out the festival without a talk about a film in one of our favorite genres, sci-fi. Longtime listeners know that we are fans of larger-than-life ideas with a personal perspective, and few films playing at this year’s festival encompassed those words more than Between Waves, a sharp science fiction film with an emotional story at its core. The film touches on a number of topics including mental health, alternate dimensions, and grief.

To learn more about what inspired the film’s ambitious, personal, and character-driven premise, we’re joined by Between Waves director, co-writer and co-producer, Virginia Abramovich.

Listen to today’s conversation and check out Between Waves at the deadCenter virtual cinema before the festival concludes tonight.

Virginia Abramovich, Between Waves writer/director/producer

The official deadCenter 2021 synopsis describes Between Waves as:

After his disappearance, Jamie pursues her missing lover through parallel dimensions until she collides with a shattering revelation. This is a cerebral, fast-paced science fiction story, with romantic longing at its core. A visually beautiful film wrapped in shades of blue with highlights of sea green.
