The Voice of the Water

Synopsis

Water in its soothing form, as a place of work and pleasure and as a source of threat and misery. Often they are being observed in a gentle humorous way that reminds us of The Human Dutch. Some people prefer to stay far away from all the wetness: the little boy having a swimming lesson, but who doesn’t dare to put his head under water, is forever imprinted on the memory of many of the viewers.
