Loverboy: Emotions Off

Loverboy: Emotions Off (2024) is a Dutch crime drama you can watch online on iFILM. Director Cyriel Guds casts himself as the lead — a single dad buried under debt to local gangsters, with nothing left to trade but his talent for getting close to people.

So he runs the "loverboy" playbook on three young women: affection first, gifts and promises next, then dependency and the streets of the Netherlands. Guds refuses to make any of it look glamorous. The film is the recruitment machine shown from the inside, beat by ugly beat. Bleak, claustrophobic, and aimed squarely at viewers who want European crime cinema with no Hollywood gloss.
