From film festivals to state capitols, we’ve had an incredible and impactful year+ screening IN WAVES AND WAR for film lovers, veterans, lawmakers, educators, and more. These veterans and their brave families opened up to us in the hopes that sharing their journey could help save lives. Watching their stories affect people in real time and move the needle in the conversation around these life-saving treatments reminds us why we do this work.
Thank you, @martharaddatz , for this incredible conversation. The return home is never easy. Our country has not dealt with the unprecedented challenges the veterans in IN WAVES AND WAR faced after a 20-year war that took decades from their lives. We’re grateful for their service and hopeful that there will be a continued effort to find new ways to help veterans successfully transition back into their family and their communities.

We first began exploring this story out of curiosity about Navy SEALs and psychedelic treatment. But as we met the people involved, we realized the film was about something much bigger — a deeply human journey that ended up changing us along the way, too. Thank you to our friend Caroline Libresco for the conversation about how we balanced the toughness and vulnerability of our subjects along the way. IN WAVES AND WAR is now streaming on NETFLIX.

One of the biggest challenges for IN WAVES AND WAR was figuring out how best to represent the experience of Marcus, DJ, and Matty undergoing their Ibogaine treatments. We worked closely with an incredible team of animators at StudioAKA in London to create these sequences. They blew us away with their attention to detail and how seriously they took representing each experience in the most authentic way possible. And now the team has received a Cinema Eye nomination for their work! Huge congrats to them. And of course, so grateful to our film collaborators, Marcus, DJ and Matty, who made themselves so vulnerable in sharing their stories, and what they went through during the treatment. IN WAVES AND WAR is now streaming.
Thank you @TIME for looking so closely at what it meant for the participants of IN WAVES AND WAR to be so open about their experiences in service of helping others and taking a deep look at the science of the psychedelic treatments that changed their lives. Jon and I learned so much in making this film, and really hope we can help the movement to make these therapies more widely available to the many people who still need help.
