Sorry, Baby

Opens July 18

Sorry, Baby is a tale of quietly powerful triumph, of seizing back your footing after the ground is yanked out from under you. This unabashedly frank portrait of how a person learns to live with a thing that you can’t actually get over is also often surprisingly, transcendently funny. That’s because writer, director, and star Eva Victor—in an auspicious triple-threat debut that heralds the arrival of a new voice as sharp as it is exquisitely tender—upends the way we usually tell stories of traumatic events.

Produced by Barry Jenkins, Adele Romanski, and Mark Ceryak of Pastel (Moonlight, Aftersun), and the winner of the Waldo Salt Screenwriting Award at the 2025 Sundance Film Festival, Victor’s feature debut marks the arrival of a bold and unforgettable new voice.

"Victor plays Agnes, a newly minted tenured professor at her old grad school... cinematographer ​​Mia Cioffi Henry captures Agnes’ rustic world of a small, windswept New England college town in a way that feels cozy yet chilly, much like the region itself."
Monica Castillo, Roger Ebert.com
"If Sorry, Baby has a thesis of its own, it’s a fluid, liberating, non-deterministic one: simply put, pain and healing assume a range of unique forms, and the tales we tell about them should follow suit."
Justin Chang, The New Yorker
