In the four-part documentary series STAAL we follow steel factory Tata Steel and its neighbors in changing times. After a century of steel production in the dunes of Wijk aan Zee, the residents of the IJmond are diametrically opposed to each other. For many IJmond residents, the factory is their life and their bread. Other, often new, villagers worry a lot about their health. STEEL asks the big question: how do you live together, when there is such a big gap in interests?
