Shot with the pacing and tension of a thriller, Late Shift follows a single night in the working life of a nurse in an overcrowded Swiss hospital. Both gripping and compassionate, the film is a tribute to the extraordinary people who stand by us in the most vulnerable moments of our lives.

In 1991, on the outskirts of Tenja, Josip Reihl Kir – the chief of the Osijek Police Department, a man dedicated to negotiations and avoiding war – was assassinated. Peacemaker is a story about the last few months of his life, in the dawn of the bloodthirsty Croatian-Serbian war, which Kir had been trying hard to prevent, told through the statements of a few witnesses and archive materials from the era. Many elements of that assassination still remain unclear.
