One night, with a warm smile and positive attitude, Floria arrives at the surgical ward of the Swiss hospital where she works as a nurse on the overnight shift.  One colleague is out sick and no replacement is on deck, so Floria, with only one other nurse and a nervous trainee, will have to cover more than two dozen patients. Surrounded by fluorescent lights, the steady beeping of monitors, and echoing footsteps, Floria struggles to fight off exhaustion and maintain her professional demeanor. Director Petra Volpe (The Divine Order) skillfully uses real-time tension to examine the emotional cost of frontline care work and the quiet, unglamorous triumph of keeping people alive in a pitiless system. Official Swiss submission for the 98th Academy Awards.
