Eva Victor Finds Comfort in “Sorry, Baby” Film

Eva Victor, the talented writer, director, and star of the indie film “Sorry, Baby” from A24, wanted to create a movie that would hold the hand of the viewer through a difficult journey. In her vision, the film portrays a person torn between the desire to hide away from the world and the longing to rejoin it. This inner conflict, embodied by the character Agnes, unfolds as time passes by her window, frozen in place.

For Eva, “Sorry, Baby” is a heartfelt tribute to the power of close friendship in times of unbearable pain. It follows one person’s healing process over five years, highlighting the small moments of joy that defy the isolation imposed by trauma. The film focuses on the evolving relationship between two friends, from a joyful reunion to a transformative act of care, leading to Agnes’ growth into someone capable of supporting her friend in return.

Eva describes the act of writing as her true passion, a complex and intense journey of creation. She sees writing as a way to breathe life into empty spaces, turning nothing into something profound. This artistic process, for Eva, is a deep and emotional experience that encompasses both struggle and fulfillment.
