The Detention House takes an exclusive look behind the scenes of the first detention house in Belgium. There, short-term prisoners serve their prison sentences in society, instead of within prison walls. No small cells, guards and prisoners, but psychologists, detention supervisors and residents who are trying to rebuild their lives. The residents look for a new home and work, and can even leave the detention center for a valid reason and under strict conditions. That 'freedom' comes with great responsibility, because anyone who breaks one rule is irrevocably sent back to a classic prison. The staff is doing everything they can to make this project a success and to get their lives back on track together with the residents. That doesn't happen without a fight, but with a laugh and a tear.
About 72,000 people work in the port of Antwerp-Bruges, the second largest port in Europe. And the jobs they do are extraordinary. Literally and figuratively. Boilers 20 meters high with a weight of 80 tons? They easily lift them from one dock to a gigantic container ship on the other side of the port. A car boat of 182 m long and 32 m wide? They will park them in a dry dock for a while. The largest container ship in the world? They maneuver this through a narrow channel into the Deurganck dock. A suspicious container? One moment, they check that thoroughly. That doesn't often go wrong. But if things go wrong, things can go very wrong very quickly.
