On a quiet evening in the South Wales valleys, Emma (Rachel Isaac) settles in for the night when she receives a call from her
son Dylan (Ffred Hayes), a nineteen-year-old student returning home after a night out in Cardiff. Their conversation turns to
fear as Dylan realises, he is being followed by some bullies who tormented him at school.

Across seven escalating phone calls, Emma and her husband Hywel (Huw Rhys) listen helplessly as her son’s situation spirals into danger as he’s pursued.
Ar noson dawel yng nghymoedd De Cymru, mae Emma (Rachel Isaac) yn ymlacio am y noson pan gaiff alwad gan ei fab Dylan (Ffred Hayes), fyfyriwr 19 oed sy'n dychwelyd adref ar ôl noson allan yng Nghaerdydd. Mae eu sgwrs yn troi at ofn wrth i Dylan sylweddoli, mae'n cael ei ddilyn gan hen bwlis o'r ysgol a oedd yn arteithio Dylan.

Ar draws saith galwad ffôn cynyddol, mae Emma a'i gŵr, Hywel (Huw Rhys), yn gwrando'n ddiymadferth wrth i sefyllfa ei mab droi at berygl wrth iddo gael ei dilyn.
