Where to Watch Dial 1119
- Sean−5 dThis is a movie about a young man having a bad day. We've all been there, but few of us have done what he did next—hopped on a bus to get some fresh air. The bus' poor ventilation compels him to steal a gun. None of us would have done that—good ventilation or bad. Nor would we have shot a bus driver. Nor would we have shot—well...now we're getting into spoilers. The point being, when you're having a bad day, dial 1119, describe your symptoms and hear the operator out. They may decide everything is fine. Or they may put you on hold. Or they may even call...the SWAT team.
