Pro Deo

Director: Will Koopman, Norbert ter Hall
Duration: 85 minutes

For legal aid lawyer Alex Sterkenburg, no case is ever just a file. As she fights for people with nowhere else to turn, in this new series from Will Koopman, the battle threatens to hit closer to home.

Alex Sterkenburg (Tjitske Reidinga) is a legal aid lawyer who runs a small practice dedicated to people who can barely afford a defence. As Alex takes on powerful institutions, gridlocked regulations and injustice, the cases start to edge ever closer to her own reality. Together with her colleagues, she has to fight just to stay afloat. Pro Deo is a drama series about people fighting for justice, while trying not to lose themselves in the process.
