“This film is not a movie; it’s not about a bank robbery. It is bank robbery. Victoria was shot in one single take. Two hours and eighteen minutes. No cuts. No CGI…” Director Sebastian Schipper and cinematographer Sturla Brandth Grøvlen’s real-time tour de force stars Laia Costa as a young woman from Madrid who meets four locals outside a Berlin nightclub. Mischievous partying and a budding romance between Victoria and Sonne (Frederick Lau) take an ominous turn when the men have to do a “job” and she insists on driving the car. The night spirals out of control. Please note: heavy use of strobe lights in the first few minutes. In English and in German with English subtitles. (Germany 2015) 138 min.
