When a mission goes badly wrong, a police officer is left fighting for his life after having been shot by an abusive husband. An internal investigation is mounted by the police watchdog, and his colleagues are forced to justify their actions. Did the follow the rules ? When the police officers are interrogated, it affects them profoundly, and they are forced to ask themselves fundamental questions.
The ensemble series THE SHIFT depicts the everyday lives of a police emergency team in Geneva. It offers a behind-the-scenes insight into the police profession, revealing their often tragic though sometimes satisfying activities, their moments of unwinding at the station or in the bar across the street, and their personal lives — which are inevitably disrupted by a challenging daily routine.
