Trafiek Axel

Trafiek Axel (2019)

EndedDocumentary show

Axel Daeseleire investigates six controversial environments where one thing is clear: everything is for sale. A woman, an animal, an organ and even a child. For gross money and with the right contacts everything is possible, rules and laws often do not even play a role. Axel Daeseleire brings international traffic to, among others, Ukraine, Namibia, Nepal and India.

Traffic Axel exposes social and ethical issues, which are strongly substantiated in journalism. Axel takes plenty of time to speak extensively and ask pertinent questions. Just as important as exposing the practices is understanding how it all works. Who are the winners and who the losers? Who will become richer and at the expense of whom?

Shakespeare & Hathaway - Private Investigators

Frank Hathaway, a hardboiled private investigator, and his rookie sidekick Lu Shakespeare form the unlikeliest of partnerships as they investigate the secrets of rural Warwickshire's residents.

Beneath the picturesque charm lies a hotbed of mystery and intrigue: extramarital affairs, celebrity stalkers, missing police informants, care home saboteurs, rural rednecks and murderous magicians, embezzling accountants and abducted au pairs, blackmail, comp claims and custody cases, all-night stake-outs and professional hits. Our odd couple of detectives will put the world to rights as they snoop and pry. They disagree on almost everything, yet somehow, together, they make a surprisingly effective team. Although they would never admit it.
