No “invisible”(?) edits here. As Paddy Mullholland says at ScreenOnScreen, Victoria is “a 140-minute action film literally shot in one take. No wonder it won an award at Berlin for its cinematography” (by Sturla Brandth Grøvlen). Not only that, at the Berlinale in February, director Sebastian Schipper took home the Prize of the Guild of German Art House Cinemas and the Reader Jury Prize. Victoria was then nominated for 7 German Film Awards and just last month won 6 of them: Best Feature, Best Director, Best Actor, Best Actress, Best Score and Best Cinematography. “A runaway party girl is asked by three friendly men to join them as they hit the town. Their wild night of partying turns into a bank robbery.” Naturally. Non-stop single-take thrills ensue.
