One of the best parts of Fantastic Fest is discovering those smaller films you’d never see otherwise. The type of gem that doesn’t get talked to death during its production, that doesn’t have its casting news splayed across the veritable plethora of movie websites, the type of film that just flies completely under the radar. Vanishing Waves is just that kind of film, that seemingly comes from nowhere to blow audiences away. Lukas is part of a research team that has developed a new technology allowing one person to access another person’s thoughts. He’s been working long hours and not spending enough time with his live-in girlfriend, Lina, but his hard work has all been worth it, and they’re finally ready to start human trials. Lukas will be the receiver, trying to document and describe his experience receiving another person’s thoughts. They’ll be using a comatose patient for the sender, the lowered brain activity making the data load more manageable for transfer to Lukas’s brain.

The best trailers only hint at the wonders within the actual movie. They tease scenes and ideas that make choosing to skip the film an impossibility. They show imagery and invoke emotions through music and dialogue snippets that make you mark your calendar for the first opportunity to see it in full. Well go ahead and make a note for September 20th-27th, because you’re going to want to see this one when it premieres at Fantastic Fest. Check out the disturbingly beautiful NSFW trailer for Vanishing Waves below.
