La Ola

Set against the backdrop of the 2018 student protests that erupted across Chilean universities following the global #MeToo movement, this emotionally resonant feminist musical centers on Julia, a determined music student portrayed by Daniela López in a powerful debut. Julia navigates the lingering trauma of a sexual assault, initially hesitating to join the growing resistance on campus. As she becomes more involved in the organizing efforts, her personal journey of survival comes to light, unexpectedly positioning her at the heart of the movement. This newfound prominence forces her to confront complex questions about her place and purpose within the fight for change.
