Gewoon de kraan opendraaien dus...

Bij Kruidvat liggen flesjes mineraalwater uit Hongkong voor een spotprijs in de schappen. Hoe komen die daar terecht? En hoe belastend is zulk exotisch water voor het milieu?

Here is a lovely film made by Fay Van Der Wall about the final month of Museum of Water in Rotterdam.

The film weaves beautiful footage of the Museum across the delicate curation of events, while the light touch of that Senegalese kora music brings back our grand finale with the marvellous singer Jacqueline Fortes.

Thank you

Amy
