A former left-wing undercover agent comes forward and wants to clear the air. Actually, nothing like that happens. It took many preliminary discussions and several attempts before Jan P. actually sat down in front of the camera. For 10 years in the 90s he spied on the left-wing autonomous scene in Wuppertal and Solingen and betrayed his friends to the Federal Office for the Protection of the Constitution. He then remained silent about his double life for 20 years. His original aim was to protect the state. But today his doubts that he was a henchman for the wrong cause prevail. STRG_F reporter Felix met Jan P. and asked himself: What does such a double life do to people - to the traitor and the betrayed?
