Victoria (Germany, 2015) – cert. 15, subtitled

Director: Sebastian Schipper

Stars: Laia Costa, Frederick Lau, Franz Rogowski

Young Spaniard Victoria (Costa) is alone in Berlin at night. She is chatted up by Sonne (Lau) and his friends.  They are slowly getting acquainted, in broken English, when Sonne’s friend Boxer (Rogowski) is compelled to repay a debt and Victoria agrees to help out…

Costa is captivating as a young woman who discovers reserves of resourcefulness and determination in a desperate situation.

Shot in one continuous take, “Schipper’s stylish heist movie is carried along on a giant wave of adrenaline and logistical daring” (Guardian).
