The employee of a Way-Home-Phone service experiences the nightly horror of a young woman who is followed by a stranger on her way home.


Maya is a volunteer at the Way-Home-Phone, a service for anyone who feels unsafe on the way home at night, and would like a reassuring voice to accompany them through the night. One evening, she receives a call from Lea, who shortly before had an unpleasant encounter with a stranger. At first Maya wants to have the usual conversation with her, but soon it turns out that Lea is being followed by the stranger. Maya now tries everything to help her. But she has no idea that this call will also change her life forever.


"And with GET HOME SAFE in particular, it was of course a challenge to tell a thriller that thrives on thrills, with moments of surprise and suspense and jump scares and all those things. But still, to tell it from a female perspective and at the same time not present the protagonist as a victim." (Director and Sooner curator Tamara Denić)
