Coby

Wisse Beets was in een kringloopwinkel op zoek naar leuke muziekcassettes om te draaien in zijn oude Fiat Panda. Naast klappers als 'het beste van de top 40 van 1987' vond hij ook een heel persoonlijk bandje met gedichten van Coby uit de Jordaan. Op de cassette staat met een typisch oude-mensen-handschrift geschreven: 'Eigen Coby opname' en 'Mijzelf memory gedichten'. Het blijkt vol te staan met gedichtjes over liefde, verlies, de oorlog, Jordanese kroegen, geluk en verdriet. Alle gedichten zijn geschreven door Coby en door haarzelf voorgedragen en opgenomen. De gedichten zijn aangrijpend en laten Wisse niet meer los. Hij besluit om het Verhaal van Coby uit te zoeken en gaat op pad. Als een amateur-detective loopt hij wekenlang met een microfoon door de Jordaan en bezoekt kroegen, bejaardenhuizen, archieven en de lokale media. Hij verdwaalt compleet maar maakt intussen wel een warm portret van de Jordaan, vervlogen tijden, nieuwe inzichten en natuurlijk het leven van Coby. Een radiodocumentaire van Wisse Beets voor de NTR.Eindredactie: Jair Stein
