Film Reviews

"A directorial debut of unfiltered frankness in both its tragedy and comedy, Sorry, Baby is a singular feat of storytelling."

–Jordan Raup, The Film Stage

"“Sorry, Baby” showcases the kind of confidence a veteran filmmaker has over their characters, story, and tone, and the fact that Victor knocks it out of the park with her first film only makes us eager to see what else she has in store."

–Ema Sasic, Next Best Picture

"Sorry, Baby is an incredible presentation of Victor as an exciting new voice in filmmaking. Their ability to explore heavy topics in a way that isn't oppressive, and with a screenplay that's tender, quite funny, and necessary."

–Ross Bonaime, Collider
