LATE SHIFT (HELDIN), 2025

Switzerland | DCP, Color, 89’ | German, Turkish, French
Director: Petra Biondina Volpe
Cast: Leonie Benesch, Sonja Riesen, Alireza Bayram

Floria is a nurse working the night shift in the surgical unit of a Swiss hospital. With minimal staff, she must manage critical patients, respond to emergencies, and withstand the pressures of an overburdened system. The film captures her internal tension, brought to life by Leonie Benesch’s subtle yet powerful performance. Its fast pace draws the audience directly into Floria’s taut world, where attention and endurance are constantly put to the test. Night Shift reveals both the invisible weight of the nursing profession and a sharp critique of the healthcare system—it is also Switzerland’s submission for the Academy Awards.
