What the film is about
The main character is Agnes (Eva Victor), a teacher at a small university who can't seem to escape the trap of her memories. Something so traumatic happened to her in the past that life has hit the pause button.Everything seems to go in circles until a friend comes to visit — and in this tender, absurd, strangely recognizable friendship, there's a chance for some breathing room.

Viewing experience
The film manages to capture almost every human emotion: pain, silliness, hope, and joy. There's the stunning Eva Victor (both starring and directing), who plays her character with such delicacy that sometimes it feels like you're peeking into someone's real life.The trauma isn't named, but it runs through the entire story. Fear, humor, heartache — it's all there. And if it weren't for her best friend and touchingly confused neighbor, Agnes probably wouldn't have found her way back to herself.
What critics and audiences are saying
On IMDb — 7.7. On Rotten Tomatoes — 97%. One viewer under the username peter0969 wrote in their review: "This film is both funny and heartbreaking as it beautifully shows both the dramatic and comedic moments of life despite the difficult situation the characters find themselves in."If you need quiet, warm, honest cinema that doesn't heal but makes the pain a little more bearable — "Sorry Baby" is worth your evening. And you'll definitely remember the kitten. Earlier on zoomboola.com, we told you about the film "Farang" — when the past catches up with you with a right hook.
