The Preacher is a film about friendship, loyalty, and betrayal within the criminal world. In the still relatively naive Netherlands of the hippie era in the 1970s, hardened criminals took charge of the burgeoning hash trade. Klaas, son of a callous but financially very successful businessman, decides to dedicate himself entirely to this easy money-making machine as well. He wants to be the biggest before hash is legalized, which he believes will take only a few more years. Above all, he wants to become richer than his hated father. But hash is not legalized, and slowly but surely, Klaas is gripped by the violence, no matter how much he believes he can rise above it.
