Story About :
The Call : A Los Angeles Police Department veteran 9-1-1 operator, Jordan Turner (Berry), receives a call one night from a teenage girl, Leah Templeton (Evie Thompson), fearing for her life as a man breaks into her home. Jordan calmly advises her to conceal herself upstairs, but when the call is disconnected, Turner calls Leah back, a decision that later costs Leah her life, as her hiding spot is given away to the intruder. Jordan attempts to dissuade him from going further over the phone. He responds "It's already done" and hangs up, leaving her distraught. The next day, Jordan sees a television report confirming that Leah has been murdered. Emotionally affected by the incident, Jordan tells her boyfriend, Officer Paul Phillips (Morris Chestnut), that she can no longer handle field calls. Six months later, she is working as a trainer for 9-1-1 operators. Simultaneously, Casey Welson (Breslin) a young teenager is kidnapped from a mall parking garage after parting with her friend, Autumn, and forced into the trunk of a car. Casey had taken Autumn's cellphone which she had forgotten, so she is able to use it to call 9-1-1. A rookie operator (Jenna Lamia) receives the call and cannot handle it and Jordan overhears the situation and takes over. Casey is using Autumn's disposable phone, so her exact GPS location cannot be found. While the kidnapper drives, Jordan guides Casey through knocking out a tail light and signaling people in nearby cars. One woman who sees Casey waving her arm out of the trunk of the car calls 9-1-1, allowing the police to narrow their search. The man ends up killing one person and burning another who tries to intervene and switches cars with one victim, Alan Denado (Michael Imperioli), in an attempt to elude the police. However, he inadvertently leaves fingerprints at the scene of the car switch and the police are finally able to determine his identity as Michael Foster
