Watch Freddy Heineken: Hostage

Brewery tycoon and business genius Freddy Heineken was a legendary yet controversial figure. It was this fame, along with his powerful public presence and opulent lifestyle, which made him a high-profile target for what came next. In 1983, Heineken was kidnapped and held three weeks for a record ransom of 35 million Dutch guilders. While in captivity, Heineken demonstrated the same will, resourcefulness and drive that took him to the top of the business world – skills that kept him alive. This gripping new TV movie tells the incredible story of Heineken’s ordeal as he faces his own mortality while desperately seeking a way out.
