One of the interviewees of the documentary is Peris Conrad, a former inspector in Rotterdam. When asked about experiences of racism and discrimination, he says after a short silence: “There are so many. I tumble over each other.” An experience Conrad cites happened in his freshman year at police academy. “A photo was taken of me. Bars were drawn on it and the text put above it ‘Imagine, our monkey in a cage’. That’s what you have to do with it,” says the former police inspector.
