Paradise lost. A deadly wave. Can ordinary people survive

The First Wave

 Paradise lost. A deadly wave. Can ordinary people survive the unthinkable?

When a tsunami strikes Australia's Sunshine Coast, a relaxing day turns into a desperate fight. Amy, Mark, and Nikki face impossible choices and a terrifying reality where the idyllic coast becomes a death trap.

Tsunami

The beach vanished. The ocean roared. And survival was no longer guaranteed.

 

Amy's morning walk, Mark's haircut, Nikki's workday, ordinary moments shattered when a catastrophic tsunami barrels towards Australia's Sunshine Coast.  With precious minutes to act, they must make life or death decisions. Amy races for high ground with her children. Mark seeks desperate shelter in a coastal penthouse.  Nikki, a meteorologist, battles disbelief to get the warning out.

From the beachfront to the high rises, the beloved holiday spot becomes a desperate battleground.  As the wave crashes down, it's not just the landscape that's transformed, it's the limits of what ordinary people can endure. Can they find the strength to survive when paradise becomes a nightmare?
