The film deals with the journey of volcanic water from the Caldara di Manziana to the lake of Bracciano, crossing the hilly and still wild land of the Etruscans, in Central Italy, showing the rich wildlife which still today inhabits streams, rocky gorges, woods and lake shores.
The journey of the water starts with a geyser, surrounded by pools and springs, where the underground gas transforms rainwater into sparkling sulphur-flavoured water, inhabited by few species like the dragonfly nymph which are able to coexist with the chemical compounds. Then the small stream becomes a river and crosses oak woods where a number of animal species live: spectacled salamanders, peregrine falcons, martens and insects belonging to many different species which colonise the Etruscan tombs, still completely surrounded by wild habitats.
The last part of the film deals with the final destination of the stream: the volcanic lake of Bracciano, a freshwater lake of circular shape that hosts a number of water birds and amphibians which go to spawn during a remarkable astronomic event: a sun eclipse.

A million years ago, Italy was a battlefield where enormous, violent volcanoes offered competing displays of bursts of fire, lava flows, clouds of hot ash, and showers of lapilli. They raised mountains and erased valleys. It was a mineral world: there was no room for plants or animals. Then, a hundred thousand years ago, one by one the volcanoes stopped erupting and rain gradually filled the ancient craters, turning them into lakes. It was the beginning of a new adventure for life, which this time conquered the land of volcanoes.

Well, despite decades of watching science/nature videos, I'd never heard of this place. That was an excellent production--just one narrator's voice throughout the film and no cutaways to people talking.
