Berlin, 4am. Victoria (Laia Costa), a young woman from Madrid, meets Sonne (Frederick Lau) and his three mates outside a club. The local guys promise to show Victoria the real side of the city, but they owe someone a dangerous favour that requires repaying that evening. As Victoria's flirtation with Sonne deepens into something more he convinces her to come along for the ride.
Shot in one continuous take, Victoria is a hyponotising and fast-paced thrill ride, featuring an energetic combination of 90s rave films, romantic walk-and-talks and high-stakes heists.
