Why we chose it

And yet, the most riveting police thriller of recent years is filmed all in one room with the camera staring at only one face. Endless suspense, twists and moral dilemmas with an intelligent, inexhaustible script and a sensational one man show interpretation as the only weapons.

Synopsis

Asger Holm, a police officer and a direct-action emergency room operator, answers continuously routine phone calls and calls for help on a shift that seems typical. The call of a woman who may have been kidnapped will give the evening an unexpected turn, revealing a crime far greater than he initially thought, which will bring to the surface his own wounds.
