In a spectacular scene, detective Eric Visser (Huub Stapel) pursues the anonymous killer by speed boat.
Because there are no locations in Amsterdam that are at water level, the filmmakers had to divert to the Oudegracht near the Stadhuisbrug in Utrecht for this.
In the 7-minute chase through the canals of Amsterdam, only 30 seconds, from 05.33 to 6.03, are set aside for the scene shot here in Utrecht. The chase can be seen on You Tube (

Storyline:
A psychopathic killer makes the Amsterdam canals unsafe. He shows up at the most unexpected times and places killing one victim after another. There is an atmosphere of terror in the city with Amsterdam Police detective Eric Visser looking for the murderer but the investigation is not really progressing until Visser enlists the help of a diving association. This is how he met the handsome Laura, who with Eric’s daughter, get closer to the killer than the detective himself during his investigation.
