Nightshift is a 1981 British avant-garde film directed by Robina Rose. Nightshift premiered at the Edinburgh Film Festival on August 14, 1981 and was shown at Berlin's 12th International Forum of New Cinema in 1982. It was later screened in New York and acquired for the collection of the Museum of Modern Art.[1] The film follows a receptionist (played by Pamela Rooke) during her night shift at the Portobello Hotel in Notting Hill as she goes about her duties and watches the hotel guests. The film was restored in 4k resolution by Lightbox Film Center at University of the Arts in Philadelphia in collaboration with the British Film Institute and Cinenova.[2] The restored version of the film premiered in Berlin and New York in 2024.[1]
