Babushka, where are the guests?
"I know, for German standards, I'm a really bad beer drawer. But I give my best.” Fatima passionately works in Berlin's “Café Zoo” for 10 years now, and brings some Senegalese hospitality in this genuine German bar. The place has become her second home and her colleges - most of them immigrants as well - are the replacement for her family she left back in Africa. “Two or three days off, that's too much for me!” she announces convincingly. Only on a quiet working day, she becomes impatient. A portrait of an energetic women, inspired by Alain Cavalier.
