Synopsis
S&M Judge (SM Rechter, 2009) is a Belgian drama you can watch online on iFILM, directed by Erik Lamens and drawn from events that unsettled the country in 1997.
A Belgian judge was tried and convicted for the consensual S&M relationship he shared with his wife — a verdict that ended his career, cut him off from his daughter, and turned their private life into national headlines. Lamens built the film entirely from the couple's own vantage point, not the courtroom's. No judgment is handed down on screen; the camera simply stays with two people who chose each other and paid an outsized price for it. Gene Bervoets and Veerle Dobbelaere play Koen and Magda without asking for sympathy — they just show the life.
The detail that anchors everything: they stayed together. Stream S&M Judge (2009) online on iFILM.
