Late Shift (Heldin)

Directed by Petra Volpe
Switzerland, Germany
2025
91 mins

Nurse Floria works with passion and professionalism in the surgical ward of a Swiss hospital, where her every move is perfect. She has an open ear for patients, even in the most stressful situations, and is immediately on hand during emergencies – ideally. But in the harsh reality of her daily routine, things are often unpredictable. When she starts her late shift one day, a colleague is absent from the fully occupied, understaffed ward. Amidst the ensuing hustle and bustle, Floria looks after a seriously ill young mother and an old man desperately waiting for his diagnosis with the same care and routine as a private patient with extra demands. But as the night progresses, her work becomes more and more of a race against time.
