Alleen thuis met een dienstwapen

About This Movie

Alleen thuis met een dienstwapen is a gripping documentary that dives into the murky world of undercover policing in the Netherlands. It follows Peter Paul’s trajectory from the late 90s through his rise in the DSRT, where he's right in the thick of it with some seriously dangerous criminals. The film's tone is gritty yet oddly reflective, offering a real sense of the moral dilemmas faced by those living double lives. The pacing feels almost like a slow burn, allowing you to soak in the tension and stakes. What stands out are the practical effects of the storytelling — no flashy tricks, just raw experiences. The performances, particularly Paul’s recounting, are compelling and draw you into that chaotic existence.
