Kopi Tiam highlights the difference in outlook between the older and the younger generation. The older generation is epitomised by the traditionally educated grandfather who established the family coffeeshop. His grandson, pragmatic in outlook, represents the younger generation. Differences between traditional values and contemporary attitudes result in a confrontation that ultimately determines the fate of the Kopi Tiam.

Based on Spring in the Coffeeshop by Low Ing Sing.
