7500 (R)
synopsis
It looks like just another day at work for Tobias, a soft-spoken young American co-pilot on a flight from Berlin to Paris, as he runs through the pre-flight checklist with Michael, the pilot, and chats with Gökce, his flight-attendant girlfriend.

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.
