Synopsis: When police officer Asger Holm (Jakob Cedergren) is demoted to desk work, he expects a sleepy beat as an emergency dispatcher. That all changes when he answers a panicked phone call from a kidnapped woman who then disconnects abruptly. Asger, confined to the police station, is forced to use others as his eyes and ears as the severity of the crime slowly becomes more clear. The search to find the missing woman and her assailant will take every bit of his intuition and skill, as a ticking clock and his own personal demons conspire against him.
“It’s one of those movies that knows exactly when you expect it to zig, and makes sure to zag every single time instead.” – Bryan Bishop, The Verge
“A claustrophobic thriller that finds fascinating ways to transcend, spiritually, its confines.” – Bilge Ebiri, Village Voice
