Vika is this poignant drama that really gets into the psyche of a 12-year-old girl, dealing with neglect and longing. The atmosphere is thick with tension from the get-go, as the young protagonist, Vika, navigates her troubled home life. It’s striking how the film captures her desperation, especially when she decides to take the neglected baby away. The pacing feels deliberate, almost methodical, allowing viewers to sit with the discomfort of her reality. The performances are raw and natural, making it easy to empathize with Vika’s turmoil. The cinematography, while not flashy, adds to the understated mood, enhancing the emotional weight of her journey. There's something about its simplicity that makes it resonant without being overly sentimental, which I appreciate.
