Originally released as a motion picture in 2008.
Jürgen Vogel, Frederick Lau, Max Riemelt, Jennifer Ulrich, Christiane Paul.
During project week, a popular and unorthodox high school teacher, in an attempt to stir up his lethargic students, devises an experiment that will explain what totalitarianism is and how it works. What begins with harmless notions about discipline and community builds into a real movement: the Wave. The teacher decides to break off the experiment. But it may be too late; the Wave has taken on a life of its own and is out of control.
DVD, widescreen (2.35:1).

[Thank you Stevie Smith.]
Excellent. This chilling fable ought to be shown in high school as a preventative antidote against the virus of herd mentality.
