Reading Tea Leaves (The Dispatchables 2/5) | VPRO Documentary
An interesting applicant responds to the vacancy, but Stanley also has to deal with a new problem: Nanne, his oldest courier, is having more and more problems with heavy deliveries. This comes at a bad time, because around Christmas a tremendous amount of boxes with wine need to be delivered. Stanley makes a big investment, one that involves new concerns. When Nanne comes home and drops onto his couch after a long day at work, he ponders the decisions he made in his life.
About The Dispatchables:
Somewhere in Amsterdam there is an extraordinary bike courier company. The amiable but disorganized Stanley manages this company and the motley crew of employees. Every courier has their own reasons for peddling around the city. And their own secret dreams.
No matter the weather and often the employees swarm around the city of Amsterdam, a city that is scarred by the increasing gap between the haves and have nots.
At their base camp the couriers sometimes give each other a hard time with harsh jokes and petty quarrels. Luckily, the local residents frequently drop in and interfere with matters, like upstairs neighbour Laura, whom Stanley is infatuated with. They are just like a family: it’s impossible to live with each other and they certainly cannot live without each other. And in the meantime they have a business to keep alive.
Every episode focuses on Stanley and one other courier. The series deals with topics like loneliness, inclusion, and social inequality.
Episode 2 of 5.
