What's Right Keerpunten op het Binnenhof

About this movie

The public sector is in crisis. Across the political spectrum, there is broad agreement: the foundations of the welfare state have been eroded. Housing has become unaffordable for many, healthcare increasingly inaccessible, labor rights are under pressure, and asylum policies grow harsher by the day. How did we get here? When did the Netherlands change course? How did polarization take hold of our society-and is there still a way back? In this four-part opinionated documentary series, writer and presenter Johan Fretz looks both back and ahead, in search of where things went wrong-and how they might be put right in today's Netherlands. Fretz investigates the roots of the political and social crises of our time. How did four key pillars of the Dutch welfare state-labor, healthcare, housing, and migration-come under such strain? Through in-depth conversations with key witnesses, he revisits crucial moments in political history to understand the turning points that brought us here. Today's problems did not arise out of nowhere; they are the result of years of failed policy, shifting ideologies, and political compromise. Johan Fretz engages in open and searching dialogue with leading figures including Agnes Jongerius, Renske Leijten, Ab Klink, Coen Teulings, Ed Nijpels, Marlou Schrover, and Henk Kamp. Not to confirm his own views, but to challenge them. What's Right? is not an indictment-it's an invitation: to look again, to listen again, and to reconsider what is truly just.
