‘Late Shift’ Review: Leonie Benesch Is Simply Marvelous As A Nurse On The Edge In Petra Volpe’s Urgent Medical Drama – Berlin Film Festival
‘Late Shift’ review: Leonie Benesch is simply marvelous as a nurse on the edge in Petra Volpe’s urgent medical drama – Berlin Film Festival
Exceptional in the 2023 German film The Teachers’ Lounge, Ilker Çatak’s breakout drama about school thefts and discipline, she can currently be seen in theaters as the still moral centre of Tim Fehlbaum’s September 5, playing the translator for the ABC journalists at the Munich Olympics in 1972. Floria’s firm, professional voice wavers only once, when she bawls out the private patient, but there are tiny cracks in her armor of efficiency, suggested by momentary glances or a break in her stride, that afford glimpses of the thinking, feeling woman inside it. Title: Late Shift Festival: Berlin (Special Gala) Director-screenwriter: Nadia Fall Cast: Leonie Benesch, Sonja Riesen, Urs Bihler, Margherita Schoch, Jürg Plüss Sales agent: TrustNordisk Running time: 1 hr 32 mins
