The Mission: Waves Upon the Sand (1990)
The Radar read
A quieter title still finding its audience, though the rating rests on a thin sample, so treat it as provisional.
Synopsis
This 60 minute film follows The Mission through the second half of 1989. It shows them recording their album Carved In Sand, touring Scotland and headlining the Reading Festival. This is not a documentary - it shows a modern rock band at work in their own unique way. There is over 35 minutes of the band's music on the soundtrack, some of it unique to this film.

Content check
Based on the age rating and content tags — not a full scene-by-scene list.
Radar blends quality, momentum and freshness into one “what to watch now” number — so a great older film can sit lower than a rising new release. The Quality signal above is the time-neutral rating, which is why an acclaimed classic keeps a high quality score even when its Radar number is lower. Radar outputs are editorial algorithmic recommendations, not objective facts, and may change as signals update. A Radar score is not the same as a TMDB, IMDb or critic rating.
