Agnes is a young, witty, and brilliant university professor. When she's sexually assaulted by a trusted friend, her world falls apart, but it all happens suddenly and quietly, almost tiptoeing. It might take time, but life goes on, at least for everyone else. Only by finding the strength to process what happened, and thanks to the solid and sincere support of her lifelong friend Lydie, will Agnes find the key to rebirth.
"Winner of the coveted Waldo Salt Screenwriting Award at this year's Sundance Film Festival, Sorry, Baby is a lucid, eccentric, and shocking look at everything that follows the brutal and inevitably destabilizing, or worse, destructive, violation of an identity, of a previously constructed individual—and social—well-being, and even before that of a body and femininity that suddenly become a cage, elements of shame, and once again weapons, capable of taking aim, creating distance between oneself and the rest of the world, or more generally of life, yet without being able to fire". (Eugenio Grenna)
