As he struggles to carry out orders, he faces gut-wrenching choices that pit his loyalty to the law against his love for family. 'Clean' is a quest to expose the pain, guilt, and hope within a man forced to choose between what is right and what is required.

Als werkelijkheidszin bestaat moet mogelijkheidszin ook bestaan

‘If a sense of reality exists, a sense of possibility must also exist’ is an adaptation of the theatrical play ‘The Enthusiasts’ by Robert Musil. Franciska Lambrechts has managed to turn this ‘unstageable’ piece into an intriguing film by radicalizing Musil’s work. In close consultation with the actors (from theatre companies including tg. Stan and Dito’Dito), she reduced the text to its core: the quest of a small group of people for truth and reality at a time when major ideologies fail. It has become a refined film with strictly framed black-and-white images and passionate acting.
