The Dutch TV channel SBS6 broadcasts a program called ‘Probleemwijken’ (Problematic Neighbourhoods). When a man admits he misused his grandchild, his house is destroyed by angry neighbours and he has to go into hiding. Also riots break out, making it necessary to send in the riot police.
The German NDR media program ZAPP send a reporter to produce a reportage about the controversial program and to find out if SBS6 can be held responsible for the damage. For the rest the moral question, if a channel can broadcast a man stating that he is a paedophile, needs to be answered.
The spokesman of SBS6 is clear. We want to point out what the problems in some Dutch neighbourhood are. A media professor states that the inhabitants of these neighbourhoods are misused for entertainment.
For this reportage Featurez did the research, set-up, planning of the filming, booked a camera crew, accompanied the filming and did street interviews and translations.
