Victor

Facing death, love, and fatherhood at the edge of time

Victor is 31 years old and suffering from a rare form of cancer in an advanced stage. At the same time, his wife has decided to leave him. Trapped between the imminence of death and the breakdown of his family, he is forced to confront the most decisive moments of his life with unusual urgency. Victor documents this fragile period in which every conversation, every encounter, and every decision acquires a heightened meaning.

The film begins at the point of separation. Their relationship had already deteriorated. Alcohol, drug use, infidelity, and accumulated disappointment had driven a wedge between them. His wife describes the painful transformation she witnessed. For brief moments she recognises the man she once loved, only to see him shift into someone she can no longer bear to live with. Despite the divorce, warm feelings still linger, and the emotional ties remain complex and unresolved.

Meanwhile, Victor undergoes treatment and lives with physical pain that requires morphine. He spends time with friends, sometimes sharing vodka as a small act of defiance or companionship. His relationship with his young daughter becomes central. Each meeting feels precious, overshadowed by uncertainty about whether he will survive surgery and what kind of future remains possible.

Victor unfolds slowly, allowing empathy to grow gradually. The camera observes with respect as he opens his world of pain, anger, regret, and hope. It is a portrait of a man confronting mortality while attempting to reclaim dignity, love, and responsibility in the final stretch of an unpredictable journey.
