Plot
After the former Dutch East Indies gain their independence, many Indonesians of Dutch descent emigrate to the Netherlands. The Benoit family decides to open an Indonesian restaurant. The Indos are unpopular with the local Dutch people, who consider them to be lazy and stupid. At first, the restaurant's opening is received with ridicule, but when it begins to attract customers, thereby threatening the local snack bar, people start getting more hostile. To make matters worse, the snack bar owner's son falls in love with the Benoit family's Indonesian daughter.
