When teen Eva falls for a stranger who then helps abduct her, it's up to her mild-mannered sweetheart, Mees, to find and rescue her.

5:04 am. A woman lies awake because the neighbors are quarreling. Her husband doesn't care. Finally she makes a phone call. An expression of horror registers on her face.

In Amsterdam Paradise we're witnessing the development of the relationship between Adam and Eva and see how it’s continually influenced and affected by dozens of other stories set in the city. Amsterdam Paradise is a shimmering mosaic narrative of the city, life and love.
