More than 13 billion euros in criminal money is laundered every year, and real estate construction appears to be the ideal cover for this activity. In the process, criminals abuse gatekeepers in the real estate industry, and the power of criminals in Dutch society is growing. They get a hold of large areas and no one can get around them. In the film, Freek (Emile Jansen), a criminal, shows how he deviously launders money through immovable property constructions. He abuses vulnerable people in society and plays the gatekeepers: notaries, brokers, bankers, and accountants. Bleck developed the film on behalf of the knowledge platform Subversion. The film reflected a collaboration between, among others, RIEC-LIEC and the Ministry of Justice & Security.
