Night Shift (French: Police) is a 2020 drama film directed by Anne Fontaine, who co-wrote the screenplay with Claire Barré.
[7] Restricted by the ban on filming in police stations, interior scenes were instead shot in a former Orange S.A. data center located in Antony, Hauts-de-Seine.
The film was originally scheduled to be released theatrically on 1 April 2020,[6] but was postponed due to the French government's decision to close cinemas in response to the COVID-19 pandemic.
[15] Jordan Mintzer of The Hollywood Reporter wrote, "The cast is convincing enough, and the changing viewpoints intriguing enough, to allow you to forget some of the broader aspects of the writing and delve into the character dynamics".
[4] Jonathan Romney of Screen International wrote, "Night Shift – despite despite its clever, multi-angled opening gambit – proves a solemn, emotionally overwrought, narratively implausible affair".
