In the last few decades the Aral Sea has lost more than 80 percent of its surface area. In the Uzbek village of Moynak, once located on the banks of the Aral Sea, today there is only a polluted wasteland with a few grassy shallows containing the last remaining fish. This film is an intimate portrait of three generations of one family seeking out a living near what remains of the Aral Sea. Director’s Statement: We wanted to portray the dying process of a sea through the three last affected generations, from the old fisherman, retired who lived the sea, to the adult generation who still survives through fishing in the remain lakes, till the desert generation that survives from nothing, trying to keep the traditions and hope of a return of a more hopeful future. It is a film about the process of death and strength and root ness of people connected to their land. Aral doesn’t speak about politics or ecology it speaks only about the human survival strength. Aral still lives as an invisible presence and memory of what is considered as one of man made biggest disasters of our planet.
