As soon as I thought of this query, I felt that the answer was yes and my review was no good, but I'll ask anyway.

Do you think the movement was called the Wave by the film-makers precisely because it swells up to a point of instability and then collapses on itself?

The movie is based on a true story. According to Wikipedia, the name of the fascist group was chosen because "the third in a series of ocean waves is last and largest."
