Seventy-five minutes into Eva Victor’s spectacular debut Sorry, Baby, our heroine Agnes- played by Victor herself- sits on the curb of a motorway after a panic attack. The film moves fluidly around the attack, but its focus remains refreshingly on the aftermath- and on Agnes herself. Her relationship with best friend Lydie (Naomi Ackie) becomes the central lens through which we explore the emotional fallout. Despite its dark themes, Sorry, Baby is, above all, extremely funny. It’s this complex, nuanced portrayal of victimhood- punctuated by joy, sadness, and absurdity- that makes Sorry, Baby such a vital addition to the genre.
