"Waves" is a highly enigmatic first feature from Filipino filmmaker Don Frasco about a couple of former lovers who reunite and find themselves contemplating the nature of romance--both what might have been and what could be. While traveling home from a job in South Korea to her home and boyfriend in New York, model Sofia (Ilona Struzik) is in the midst of a layover in the Philippines when she contacts Ross (Baron Geisler), an old boyfriend who has just been laid off from his gig as an architect and who now drinks a little too much for his own good. What starts as simple a brief reunion between two friends quickly develops into a brief fling as they decide to spend the next couple of days fooling around at a nearby island resort--the only caveat being the her boyfriend is not to be mentioned.
