Here Come The Waves: The Hazards of Love Visualized" is an animated collaboration between the band and four filmmakers: Guilherme Marcondes, Julia Pott, Peter Sluszka and Santa Maria. The Los Angeles Times describes it as "a tumbling series of visuals with four distinct aesthetic styles. Peter Sluszka's ultra-slow motion capture of exploding mushrooms and elegantly disseminating seed pods … Julia Pott's line art of wolves and foxes hovering in geometric constellations … Guilherme Marcondes' renderings of skeletons caught among leafless branches and verdant human arms that unfurl like ferns… Santa Maria provides context…with cosmic, computer-generated vistas, cartoons of splintering bones.

Plot

Margaret wanders into the forest and attempts to help an injured fawn, who turns out to be a shape shifting boreal forest dweller named William. They fall in love and William must choose between his immortality and the human female he loves, much to the displeasure of his mother, The Queen. With the forest trying to aid the 2 lovers in their quest to be together, and his mother and the evil Rake trying to keep them apart, it's a love story like no other. This is an animated visualization of the prog rock album The Hazards of Love by the Decemberists.
