Nurse Floria works with passion and professionalism in the surgical department of a Swiss hospital. Her every move is perfect, she always has an open ear for her patients even in stressful situations and is immediately on hand in an emergency - ideally. But in the harsh reality of her often unpredictable everyday life, things usually look different. When Floria starts her late shift that day, a nurse is absent from the fully occupied ward, which is already chronically understaffed. Despite the hectic pace, Floria looks after a seriously ill mother and an old man who is urgently waiting for his diagnosis with the same care and routine as the private patient with all his extra requests. But then she makes a fatal mistake and the shift threatens to get completely out of hand. A nerve-wracking race against time begins.
