7500: Joseph-Gordon Levitt finds himself in the middle of a Hijacking in the new Trailer!

Patrick Vollrath’s already knows how to make a chilling drama, he was nominated in the “Best Live Action Short Film” category at the Oscars. His new film “7500”,  featuring Joseph-Gordon-Levitt in the lead has already premiered at Locarno Film Festival. “7500” is a story about a co-pilot of a plane that is hijacked by terrorists. 7500, the name, refers to the code which is used to communicate about a hijacking with the air traffic controllers. Recently, Amazon released the trailer of the film and the dramatic representation of chilling imagery urges us to believe that the film’s going to be unsettling for some audiences and terrorizing for the rest.

“It looks like a routine day at work for Tobias, a soft-spoken young American co-pilot on a flight from Berlin to Paris as he runs through the preflight checklist with Michael, the pilot, and chats with Gökce, his flight-attendant girlfriend. But shortly after takeoff, terrorists armed with makeshift knives suddenly storm the cockpit, seriously wounding Michael and slashing Tobias’ arm. Temporarily managing to fend off the attackers, a terrified Tobias contacts ground control to plan an emergency landing. But when the hijackers kill a passenger and threaten to murder more innocent people if he doesn’t let them back into the cockpit, this ordinary man faces an excruciating test.” says Amazon’s official synopsis of the movie.
