youngstar Cineale: Cinema for Children in German
Something bad happened to Agnes, but life goes on – carried by sharp humour and the unconditional support of her best friend.
Agnes, a young literature professor in New England, is thrown off course after a traumatic experience. While those around her carry on with their daily lives, she struggles with the feeling of being stuck. In five chapters spanning several years, the film follows her journey back to herself – carried by sharp humour and the unconditional support of her best friend.
With her intelligent, humorous and touching feature film debut, actress and comedienne Eva Victor delivered the hit of the 2025 Sundance Festival. The most beautiful (and also funniest) portrait of a female friendship in a long time.
“Sharply written, smartly structured and well-acted, with a star-making turn from Victor herself, this black comedy is not only nimble and consistently funny, but one of the best, most honest renderings of life after sexual assault that I’ve seen” Adrian Horton – The Guardian
