Entertainment Reviews:
Rating: 3/5 --
It's derivative to a fault-but a deserved midnight-movie cult following is all but assured.
Time Out
Rating: 2/5 --
This Lithuanian love story from Kristina Buozyte offers a discomfiting blend of visual ecstasy and narrative sterility.

...once the conceit is revealed, the attention-span vanishes.

Trippy in the best sense, VANISHING WAVES adds a healthy dose of eroticism to its familiar sci-fi genre.
Hollywood Reporter
Buozyte and her co-writer and "visual style author" Bruno Samper make the most of pricey-looking production design, cocooning their leads in soft white light, prowling dolly shots, and shimmering special effects.

Writer/director Kristina Buozyte creates some stunning dreamscapes and puts together the shared-experience sequences with a real freshness.

Rating: 3.5/4 --
A scintillating sci-fi throwback, Vanishing Waves draws inspiration from Stanley Kubrick and Andrei Tarkovsky, among others, but without feeling plagiaristic.

Product Description:
A scientific experiment to confirm the consciousness of a young, comatose woman results in an ethereal love affair that's doomed in this visionary sci-fi romance from director Kristina Buozyte (THE COLLECTRESS). When a team of scientists design a complex series of sensory-deprivation experiments aimed at making contact with catatonic Aurora (Jurga Jutaite), Lukas (Marius Jampolskis) volunteers as a test subject. Incredibly, Lukas not only manages to reach through to Aurora, he also enters into a deeply erotic, psychic romance with her that transcends the boundaries of physical reality. With the researchers none the wiser, Aurora and Lucas connect in a series of clandestine meetings set against a phantasmagorical backdrop created by their shared subconscious. But this romance can't last, and as their marvelous alternate realm comes crumbling down, Aurora and Lukas are torn apart by powerful forces beyond their both their comprehension, and their control.
