Nature and Environment (), Wolfgang Thaler 50 min

He has been the first European to traverse the glowing hot Lut desert in the former Persia in the thirties of the last century: the Austrian doctor and explorer Alfons Gabriel and his wife experienced an Orient that was at that time almost closed to western travellers. The team follows the footsteps of the Gabriel expedition and documents the fantastic landscapes and lives of the inhabitants in the southeast of today’s Iran.
