Once one of the four largest lakes in the world, the Aral Sea has been vanishing for over 50 years. It is often described as one of the world's greatest environmental disasters. Countless documentaries explain how Soviet irrigation projects caused one of the largest lakes on Earth to shrink into a fraction of its former size. But what happened to the people who were left behind? I went on a hitchhiking journey to the deepest Kazakhstan to find it out. Filmed in May 2026.
