Director Yang Yazhe delves deep into character development for 'Breaking Waves' by meticulously researching and creating vivid personas for the four main characters, each representing different aspects of love and desire in the internet generation. Originally portraying a heterosexual online dating story, the film was later revised to delve into sexual dynamics through a split of two male and two female characters. Through field research and data collection, Yang Yazhe aimed to create realistic characters, with some resembling autobiographical narratives in a first-person reflection style. The film explores unconventional sides of the characters, challenging traditional images and presenting encounters that drive the story forward.
