Jule is a waitress who can't make ends meet. She moves in with her boyfriend Peter and his friend Jan, two young men united by their passion to change the world. Jule is burdened by exorbitant payments to a wealthy businessman named Hardenberg, whose Mercedes she damaged in an accident. Peter and Jan are also at loose ends but have a secret: they are notorious "Edukators," mysterious perpetrators who break into the expensive homes of local yacht club members as an act of political rebellion. They don't steal anything; they simply re-arrange people's furniture and prized possessions and leave notes that read, "Your days of plenty are numbered." While Peter is away on holiday, Jan and Jule spend time together and their mutual attraction becomes undeniable. Impulsively, they decide to break into Hardenberg's home, but their growing passion has made them careless. When they're forced to return to the villa the following night to retrieve Jule's forgotten cell phone, Hardenburg surprises them. They have no choice but to call Peter for help, even if it means his discovering their betrayal. The trio makes a rash decision and their futures (as well as Hardenberg's) are put in jeopardy. Ideals are tested as generations collide, passions rage and loyalties shatter.
