THE FACES OF EUROPE: NATURE IN A BOTTLE
The greatest asset of Spa, the world-famous health resort, is its water with a low mineral content. Three hundred springs can be found in and around Spa, and the quality of their water has remained pure and unchanged to this day. The company 'Spa Monopol' bottles and distributes the spring water: 500 million litres are bottled per year. The film follows hydrogeologist Patrick Jobé through the forests to the springs and the upland moor of Fagne de Malchamps to the drinking water bottling plant.
