67% Informative

Eva Victor has made an astonishing debut feature, writing, directing, and starring in the comedy Sorry, Baby.

The film is about a grad student who was sexually assaulted by a trusted acquaintance.

The director carefully calibrates a tone that is bracingly honest and charmingly offbeat.

The film begins and ends with " The Year with the Baby," centering on two pivotal visits from Lydie , who nudges Agnes to consider if her life is one she wants or has surrendered to.

In these socially awkward moments of naked honesty (literal and metaphorical in this case), Victor allows us into the intimate world of a woman lost.
