Chief's Café, Amsterdam

Amsterdam. A city below sea level, known for its diamonds and canals, a vibrant city. But a city that has a dark underbelly, with its seedy red-light district, drugs barons and human trafficking. And into this mix come a quirky set of characters, whose mysterious lives intertwine. Indeed, perhaps they need each other to face life’s challenges and fit the missing pieces of the jigsaw together. There’s the young Polish doctor who has fallen into prostitution. But why does she have an ancient wooden comb from Granada? There’s the bicycle repair man, with three young asylum seeker apprentices but no bicycles to repair these days. There's the mysterious Lucretia, surveying all from her wheelchair of fortune. And there’s the enigmatic Chief, whose roots go back to an Arizonian mountain tribe, from where he derives his wisdom. And then there’s the Dresden piano, and some surprise appearances from musicians from the past.
