RELEASED ON NETFLIX APRIL 27, 2023
About The Nurse
One early morning in March 2015, the Danish police received a call from a nurse at Nykøbing Falster Hospital. She suspects her close colleague of deliberately killing patients and fears that it has just happened again. Soon a murder case unfolds like never seen before in Danish legal history. Several co-workers are now telling the police that they also suspect the nurse has poisoned patients, and some even tell that they have been walking around with this suspicion for several years. But why hasn't anyone responded? And where is the evidence? The Nurse is based on the true story of the Danish nurse, Christina Aistrup Hansen, who was sentenced to 12 years for four counts of attempted murder in 2017. The Nurse is based on the book of the same name written by Kristian Corfixen.
The series stars Josephine Park (Skruk EN: Baby Fever), the up-and-coming Fanny Louise Bernth (Det er så yndigt. EN: It’s So Charming), Peter Zandersen, Amalie Lindegård (Skruk EN: Baby Fever) and Dick Kaysø (Krummerne EN: The Crumbs).
