Step by Step or Un honnête commerçant is a 2002 Belgium comedy - thriller film directed by Philippe Blasband.

Plot[edit]

The police question Hubert Verkamen, suspected of having killed an entire family. Despite presenting himself as an honest merchant, the cops know perfectly well that he is nothing but a dangerous drug dealer.

But nothing works; the manipulation is not where it was expected.
