Čeština: Časosběrné video složené ze satelitních záběrů solného Urmijského jezera v íránské provincii Západní Ázerbájdžán. Současná plocha jezera představuje pouhých 10 % jeho bývalé maximální rozlohy, kdy bylo největším jezerem na území Středního východu a šestým největším slaným jezerem na světě.

Polski: Film poklatkowy złożony ze zdjęć satelitarnych przedstawiający zmniejszanie się powierzchni jeziora Urmia w Iranie w latach 1984–2018. Jezioro skurczyło się do 10% swojego pierwotnego rozmiaru. Niegdyś było to największe jezioro na Bliskim Wschodzie i szóste co do wielkości słone jezioro na świecie.
