Ignore the IMDB general note, see it for yourself!

It's unfortunate this movie has so little visibility. I found it as a suggestion on HBO Max. I realized it will be good after watching only the first 3 minutes. The pace is a little slow, but the movie is not necessarily trying to focus on action only, but also on displaying the characters' psychology in tense situations. The actors were phenomenal in their roles, not going overboard and displaying genuine emotions on screen. The movie ending may have been predictable to some, not to me. If you liked movies like July 22, Patriots Day or Stronger, there's a high chance you will enjoy this movie as well.

Excellent little suspense drama

Typical of a small budget film, with a very inventive plot, very modern in the topic, see for yourselves...And it is not too long either, but it is obvious that this film will not be released very widely around the world. It belongs to the ambulance scheme - topics - genre. Unfortunately a maybe too predictable ending, unlike the basic plot. Excellent acting too.
