Alarm dispatcher Asger Holm answers an emergency call from a kidnapped woman. When the call is suddenly disconnected, the search for the woman and her kidnapper begins. With the phone as his only tool, Asger enters a race against time to save the endangered woman. But soon he realizes that he is dealing with a crime that is far bigger than he first thought.
I was really blown away, even though you don't really see anyone else than Jacob Cedergren you really feel the intensity of the movie. Jacob makes it so realistic and it gives an overview of how important one call at 911 (112 in Denmark) can be. It is worth watching!
However I don't think you can watch it more than once, you must not have any idea of the outcome of the call, if anyone has spoiled it, it can ruin the whole movie!
