Synopsis
Evelyne, the daughter of a wealthy industrialist, is in love with the car mechanic Wolfgang who runs a garage with his friends Inge and Rudi. He seemingly shows no interest but Evelyne persists to win over his affections. During a trip to the River Rhine with other friends, Evelyne follows and keeps committing minor acts of sabotage in order to bring Wolfgang and herself closer.
