Join us an early screening of 'Night Nurse.' Followed by a conversation with actors Cemre Paksoy and Bruce McKenzie with writer/director Georgia Bernstein moderated by Brandon Streussnig.

Synopsis: At the start of her new job in a luxury retirement community, Eleni (Cemre Paksoy) is drawn into a series of scam calls targeting the elderly residents, a pull she can't quite name or resist. As the community's strange rhythms close around her, she grows increasingly intimate with her elusive patient, Douglas (Bruce McKenzie), until the line blurs between care and desire, devotion and delusion.

Writer-director Georgia Bernstein's debut feature examines caregiving as both vocation and compulsion, and the fine, dangerous line between them.
