The Shelter (2014)
Switzerland

One winter in an emergency shelter for the homeless in Lausanne. Every night at the entrance of this little-known basement the same entry ritual takes place, leading to occasionally violent confrontations.

Those on duty have the difficult task of “sorting the poor”: women and children first, then the men. Only 50 “chosen ones” will be allowed in to receive a hot meal and a bed. The others know it will be a long night.
