Rob hates coffee - but wakes up at 6am every morning to prepare coffee for the customers of his ramshackle internet cafe.

Reviews:
"beautiful short doc. gives you everything you want out of this place study and nothing you dont. equal parts heartwarming and heartbreaking but neither too far in either direction. great watch"
