A perfect cup of coffee

I liked this a lot. On the surface it's a gentle, quietly humorous little slice of life with small, simple 25-minute stories set around a backstreet coffeeshop, its charming owner and his new apprentice, and their customers. It embodies that coffeeshop vibe to perfection: slow, peaceful rainy days filmed beautifully in coffee tones to a lo-fi soundtrack that soothes and comforts. But it's also about how surfaces can be misleading, how nothing is as simple or as easy as it seems, and a whole heap of other things, like change and growth and failure and how we deal with them; and it deftly uses the production of the perfect cup of coffee as an analogy for all of this in a delightfully interesting way. It was a treat for the eyes and the ears, and heartwarming without being sugary. I savored it, felt better after having it and really wanted more of it.
