Late Shift

An entirely ordinary day on the beds ward of a surgical department. The nursing team is understaffed due to a shortage of personnel. Despite the hectic environment, Floria cares for her patients with expertise and full dedication. Although she gives her all, the shift gradually spirals out of control – until it eventually leads to a dramatic outburst.
Leonie Benesh, who was already outstanding in Das Lehrerzimmer, goes one step further here. It is very impressive how she elevates the film to such a high level. A working day follows Floria's evening shift, summarised in an hour and a half. Just watching it makes you exhausted. Endless respect for all healthcare workers! A must-see!
