Rex Productions was a hardcore pornography studio in [Amsterdam](/places/amsterdam/) linked to [Jean-Michel Nihoul](/people/jean-michel-nihoul/)'s trafficking network through [Marleen De Cokere](/people/marleen-de-cokere/). Rex Productions was operated by Didier Pellerin, a transvestite born in [Paris, France](/places/paris/), who sold production through the Rex Product and Rox Film Product companies from the Netherlands. Pellerin had several charges for false documents and incentive to debauch. According to a police report, [Nihoul](/people/jean-michel-nihoul/) could have participated in sadomasochistic shoots at the studio. Pellerin hosted monthly buffet evenings at her premises for initiation to sadomasochism. The report noted that [Marleen De Cokere](/people/marleen-de-cokere/) had worked as a secretary at the studio, and an anonymous witness reported seeing photographs of children chained or in handcuffs at the premises, which appeared in a press book. Pellerin reportedly stated that the trade in pedophile videos was very lucrative in Belgium but dangerous.[^1]

Rex Productions was mentioned alongside [Roxanne Films](/organizations/roxanne-films/) in the dossier compiled by the [Morkhoven Workgroup](/organizations/morkhoven-workgroup/) that linked [Marc Dutroux](/people/marc-dutroux/) to child traffickers in [Amsterdam](/places/amsterdam/). [Nihoul](/people/jean-michel-nihoul/) was charged as an accomplice in the kidnapping of [Laetitia Delhez](/people/laetitia-delhez/) along with [Annie Bouty](/people/annie-bouty/) and [Marleen De Cokere](/people/marleen-de-cokere/), who was linked to the hardcore child pornography studios [Roxanne Films](/organizations/roxanne-films/) and Rex Productions in [Amsterdam](/places/amsterdam/). The [Morkhoven Workgroup](/organizations/morkhoven-workgroup/) dossier described [Dutroux](/people/marc-dutroux/) as having frequented the studios as part of his connections to the Amsterdam-based child trafficking network.[^1]
