Heavenly Shift uses dark humour to tell the story of a young paramedic who gets introduced to the night life and to the cruel, but eternal truth: death does not choose, man does. Milán, half Serbian, half Hungarian, deserts from Croatian army in 1992, the second year of the Yugoslav war, and flees to Hungary. He gets a job with the Hungarian paramedics, where he lives through the euphoric moments of lifesaving, but also recognises innumerable faces of death. It is a cold shower for the young enthusiastic and conscientious EMS assistant when he realises that his companions make a selection from the patients. While they are saving lives, sometimes they allow old or fatally injured to die. Milán soon discovers that there is a business side to the illegal euthanasia that takes place in the back of their ambulance. (CinEast)
