Dej filmu je zasadený do rokov 1944-1945 a rozpráva príbeh židovskej dievčiny Rachel, ktorá sa ukrýva v okupovanom Holandsku. Potom, čo je svedkom masakru celej svojej rodiny, sa pripojí k domácemu hnutiu odboja. Dostane za úlohu napojiť sa na veliteľstvo gestapa a zvedie šarmantného nemeckého kapitána. Verhoeven stavia svoj film ako veľkolepú akčnú snímku, na ktorú ale zároveň pozerá s ironickým odstupom. Scenár filmu vychádza zo skutočných udalostí a stavia na hlavnej ženskej hrdinke, ktorá vo filme predstavuje jediný záchytný bod. Film totiž dobu aj hrdinu opisuje v neustálej ambivalencii. Pohráva si s tradičným pohľadom na odboj i nacistov, ktorých zažité obrazy často prevracia.
