First Trailer for Swiss Hospital Film 'Late Shift' Starring Leonie Benesch

"Be careful!" Tobis has revealed an official trailer for a Swiss drama titled Late Shift in English, the latest from acclaimed Swiss filmmaker Petra Volpe. The original German title is Heldin, which actually translates to Heroine (a female hero), but they're not using this title for its international release. Late Shift will be premiering at the 2025 Berlin Film Festival in February before opening in German theaters late that month. German actress Leonie Benesch (seen in The Teacher's Lounge, September 5) stars as Floria, a dedicated nurse, tirelessly working in an understaffed surgical hospital ward.

Last but not least, it shows how essential good care in the event of illness is for us all. Lead actress Leonie Benesch impresses with her powerful and captivating performance, which leaves the movie audience breathless and stays with us long after the film has ended. Even without subtitles yet, this is a riveting trailer […]
