Those Who Wait is a poetic retelling of the Millerite doomsday movement that swept across America in the 1840s. The film follows the town of Portland, Maine as its residents navigate several waves of apocalyptic prophecy and disappointment. Told in tableau and parable, this queer gaze into the colonial past explores the powers and perils of "believing it's over" and asks us what happens when abolition is abandoned for apocalypse
