help The Edukators FAQ

What do the Edukators actually do inside rich people's homes?

Jan and Peter break into wealthy homes but do not steal valuables. They rearrange furniture and leave messages such as "Your days of plenty are numbered" to unsettle the owners.

Why do Jan and Jule kidnap Hardenberg?

Hardenberg unexpectedly catches them inside his villa while they are carrying out an Edukators action. With Peter joining them, they take him to a remote mountain cabin because they cannot agree on a safer way to avoid arrest.

What is the romantic conflict in The Edukators?

Jule is Peter's girlfriend, but she and Jan become romantically involved while Peter is away. That triangle complicates the group's political solidarity during the kidnapping.

What does the final note in The Edukators mean?

The note "Some people never change" accompanies an ending that deliberately undercuts Hardenberg's apparent sympathy for the trio. Hans Weingartner's 2004 film leaves viewers to decide whether the activists escaped or began a larger action.
