The Wave (Norwegian: Bølgen) is a 2015 Norwegian disaster film[5] directed by Roar Uthaug. It was Norway's official submission for the Academy Award for Best Foreign Language Film at the 88th Academy Awards but failed to be nominated.[6][7][8] The movie depicts the Åkerneset crevice collapsing in Møre og Romsdal, creating an avalanche resulting in an 80-metre (260 ft) tall tsunami that destroys everything in its path. A sequel titled The Quake (Norwegian: Skjelvet), directed by John Andreas Andersen, was released on 31 August 2018.[9]
Plot
Geologist Kristian Eikjord is working his final day in Geiranger before moving to Stavanger with his family, when sensors on the mountain indicate groundwater has disappeared at Åkerneset.
While waiting for the ferry with his children, Sondre and Julia, while his wife Idun works a few more days at the town hotel, Kristian has an epiphany and rushes back to the geology center, leaving his children in the car. He and his coworker Jacob investigate the crevice and find that the sensor wires have snapped due to the movements inside the mountain. Kristian's former boss Arvid agrees to enter a higher state of alert, but not to sound the evacuation alarm due to being mid tourist season. Kristian returns to the car hours later, but finds that the children have gone to the hotel. Julia wants to say goodbye to their house, so Kristian drives with her to stay there one last night. Sondre books a room at the hotel, and heads down to the basement with his headphones and skateboard.
Arvid and Jacob find the instrument readings accurate and go down to the crevice to investigate. Kristian reviews documents of previous avalanches that suggests the readings indicate an upcoming avalanche. He calls the station and orders them to sound the alarm for the residents of Geiranger. The avalanche happens, and Arvid sacrifices himself when Jacob's foot becomes trapped. The alarm is sounded shortly before the rockslide crashes into the fjord, creating a megatsunami that heads towards Geiranger.
With ten minutes until the tsunami hits Geiranger, Kristian takes Julia and drives toward Ørnevegen [no], before getting stuck in traffic. Realizing their altitude is low, they abandon the car to run uphill on foot, shouting for others to do so. Their neighbor Anna's leg is trapped by a car, and Kristian attempts to free her, sending Julia up the mountain with Anna's husband Thomas and daughter Teresa. As the tsunami approaches, Kristian realizes that he and Anna are not going to make it. He seats himself and Anna in a van before the tsunami engulfs the vehicle. Meanwhile, Idun and her colleague Vibeke evacuate the hotel guests onto a bus, but Sondre is nowhere to be found. Idun refuses to leave without him, and tourists Maria and Philip help her search. They find Sondre, but as they return to the lobby, they see that the bus is gone and the tsunami has reached Geiranger. They rush back downstairs to the basement's bomb shelter as they are chased by water. Maria is washed away, but the others make it.
Kristian survives but finds Anna next to him dead, impaled by debris. He walks up to Ørnevegen and finds Julia alive, leaving her with Thomas and Teresa while he heads back to Geiranger to find Idun and Sondre. In the now devastated town, Kristian quickly finds the destroyed evacuation bus full of dead passengers, including Vibeke but not Idun and Sondre, and he starts moving towards the hotel. Down in the bomb shelter, the water level rises, and they are unable to open the door and swim out, as debris out in the corridor is blocking it. Philip, panicking to breathe, pushes Sondre underwater, but Idun drowns him to save her son.
Kristian finds Sondre's backpack and concludes that Idun and Sondre are dead. In his grief, he furiously bangs on some pipes. Idun and Sondre are able to hear, and respond by banging on the walls. As Kristian finds them and dives, incoming water floods the refuge. Removing the debris, he reunites with Idun but runs out of air as he returns with Sondre. Idun heads back in a desperate attempt to revive him, drags him through the water up to the surface, attempts rescue breathing, then CPR. She finally accepts that Kristian has drowned and stops trying. Sondre, however gives one last effort, and he manages to revive Kristian.
