Crime is the theme of the six 2012 Telefilms.

For the new series of Telefilms—with a crime theme—123 proposals were received. After a pre-selection of twelve plans, the public broadcasters have now made the final choice. The six films will go into production this year and will be broadcast on television in 2012.

Below, in alphabetical order of title, are the six new Telefilms. In parentheses, in order, the writer, the director, the producer, and the co-producing broadcaster.

- Black Out (Melle Runderkamp; Arne Toonen; Hazazah Pictures & Orange Film; BNN)
- Cop vs. Killer (Simon de Waal; date unknown; Shooting Star; AVRO)
- Manslaughter (Marcel Lenssen; Pieter Kuijpers; Pupkin Film; HUMAN)

- The Defector (Jan Harm Dekker & Henk Apotheker; Pieter van Rijn; Eyeworks; TROS)

Telefilms are feature films for television that address social themes. The co-productions between independent producers and the public broadcaster receive financial support from the Ministry of Education, Culture and Science and CoBO, the project implementer.
