Q&A after the screening.
A top Belgian drama about the work of police negotiators depicting operations to save the lives of hostages is unique in its structure. A total of 12 episodes are divided into pairs, both showing the same day. First we watch everything from the point of view of the police officers, then we get to the ones being negotiated with. So the series makes perfect use of space to dive deep into the psychology of both sides. At the same time, it manages to surprise with the precision of the best action dramas.
