Short description
Jordan Turner is an experienced 911 operator but when she makes an error in judgment and a call ends badly, Jordan is rattled and unsure if she can continue. But when teenager Casey Welson is abducted in the back of a man's car and calls 911, Jordan is the one called upon to use all of her experience, insights and quick thinking to help Casey escape, and not just to save her, but to make sure the man is brought to justice.
What's left behind the scenes
- While preparing for her role in this film, Halle Berry visited a call center and spoke with operators.
- The idea for the film came to screenwriter Richard D'Ovidio when his wife watched an interview with an emergency service operator on television. Intrigued by the topic, he visited a call center in Los Angeles and discovered that it had its own emergency generators, bulletproof windows, and the building itself was surrounded by a moat.
- The scene where the fuel attendant burns was filmed in one take.
