The debut film of American actor and director Eva Victor will open the Edinburgh International Film Festival which runs from August 14 – 25.

Sorry, Baby is a comedy drama starring Victor and featuring Naomi Ackie and Lucas Hedges.

Something bad has happened to Agnes (Eva Victor) but life goes on – until a beloved friend visits and the world begins to open.

Paul Ridd, CEO and Festival Director of EIFF, has said “This is a film that completely floored us. Its witty and moving script and formal confidence is married to heartbreaking performances from a wonderful cast, and it signals Eva Victor as a major talent on screen and behind the camera. The film’s fierce, uncompromising spirit and independence perfectly aligns with EIFF, and we are honoured to open this year’s Festival with such a wonderful film.”

Sorry, Baby premiered at this year’s Sundance Film Festival where filmmaker Eva Victor won the Waldo Salt Screenwriting Award. The film will be screened as part of Directors Fortnight at this year’s Cannes Film Festival and will be released later this year by A24 in the US and Picturehouse Entertainment in the UK.
