After an argument with her husband, a voluptuous German woman stays alone at a motel that doubles as a café. The thermos of coffee left behind during the argument follows her, becoming the first prop in this magic show. The café owner’s husband leaves in anger; she cannot understand her son's music, cannot accept her daughter's fashion, and cannot bear the crying of her baby, so she drifts outside the lives of her three children as an outsider. The café she runs has no coffee machine, and the bar is covered in dust; the motel she manages houses a painter with no works and a tattooed woman with no business. The owner of Baghdad Café is wrapped in the dust of life, faded and unable to tolerate an uninvited guest any longer. The German woman views everything she witnesses as a comprehensible confusion and insists on staying. After a thorough cleaning, Baghdad Café becomes a rainbow in the desert; the men's clothing is transformed into fashionable women's attire to help the owner’s daughter through her adolescence; seated nearby, she listens to the café owner’s son play the piano; she uses her husband’s magic props to learn magic and offers entertainment for the café. What the German woman does is merely a normality in life, but in this café in the Baghdad desert, it truly appears to be magic.
