    Storyline

    Edit
    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.

    Edit
    • Trivia
      The genesis of the film was a YouTube clip of a kidnapped woman calling an emergency dispatcher while her kidnapper sat nearby. Director Gustav Möller was struck by how much an audio clip could convey on its own with no visual accompaniment.
    • Goofs
      When Asger is having a phone conversation (1:11:30) his forefinger is on the cell phone but in the next scene the forefinger is on his cheek.

    9/10
    Insanely exciting all the way to the end
    With an amazing actor in Jacob Cedergren, the director and crew of this film has pulled off what appears to be one of the best low-budget movies ever made.

    The movie is immensely exciting, and deserves to be world famous. Everything about this movie is perfect, and shows that you don't need deep hollywood pockets to make an amazing movie.

    Extra points for having a great trailer without spoilers, seems like this is a hard thing to do for most producers nowadays...
