On March 22nd 2016, the senior students of a secondary school in Belgium were meant to leave for Rome, but never made it there due to a terrorist attack. Although they all get out of there alive, they now have to process this trauma.
"Flikken BXL" provides the first insight into the largest and most controversial police force in our country: the Brussels Capital-Ixelles zone. Five years after the attacks of 22 March in Brussels, the force's intervention and investigation teams are trying to make a difference in the different areas of the city: from the densely populated Marolles and the Matonge to the Schuman square in the European quarter and the tourist center. In addition to police work, Flikken BXL also shows how challenging life in the big city is on the basis of four portraits of Brussels residents.
In five episodes, Luk portrays strong people with a haunting and special story that determined their lives. Every episode revolves around a strong theme every week. For example, Luk speaks to Flemish people who suffer from a limited lifespan, childhood traumas and broken loves, but also those who used to be unwanted children or who are stuck in the past.
Eric Goens returns with well-known Flemish people such as Bart Peeters, Alexander De Croo, Nora Gharib, Alex Agnew, Andy Peelman and Julie Van den Steen to the school of their childhood. From the school desks of their youth he goes in search of their life story. What big and small stories from their school days have stuck? Which classmate secretly started walking with their attention? And have they become who they hoped to become?
Walter Wilson (Kevin Janssens) and Robin De Rover (Ella-June Henrard) once started their careers in the police force with great dedication and noble ideals, but too often saw months of intensive and dangerous detective work lost due to what they considered irrelevant procedural errors, dexterity of expensive lawyers and dubious decisions of foreign judges. They are increasingly colouring outside the lines during their patrols: for example, they tip criminals off about future police actions and get heavily paid for them. Wilson is also addicted (women, booze, drugs...) and that makes him incalculable. When he is suspended from the police force after repeated conflicts, he looks for even more rapprochement with the criminal environment, but in the meantime is tipsy game.
