In 1930s Nazi Germany, a history teacher, Burt Ross, conducts a thought-provoking experiment to illustrate the era's atmosphere. He establishes a movement called "The Wave," preaching principles of Power, Discipline, and Superiority. His students enthusiastically follow him, and soon the entire school is under "The Wave's" influence. Those who resist face intimidation or worse. As Ross becomes increasingly enthralled by his experiment, it's unclear whether it's still just a lesson or something more sinister. The situation reaches a boiling point, forcing Ross and his students to confront a harsh reality.
