This documentary, filmed in 1929, highlights the richness and diversity of Georgian spa towns: mountains, coastline, and thermal springs with curative properties. Through unique footage from the 1920s, the film presents iconic sites such as Borjomi, Akhtala, Tskaltubo, Shamshavani, and Abastoumani. It explores their historical context, their therapeutic resources, and the resort practices popular at the time. Eduard Soupatashvili brilliantly captures both the natural landscapes and the daily lives of spa-goers. The film is part of Soviet propaganda, emphasizing how the country's natural resources should serve socialist culture and the economy. The images, both poetic and didactic, illustrate the use of local resources in the service of progress and collective well-being.
