On Friday, April 25, a new photography exhibition sharing stories of Ukrainian prisoners of war is set to open at the Vabamu Museum of Occupations and Freedom in Tallinn. At the opening, two movies on the same theme will also be shown, while visitors will also be able to write letters to Ukrainians currently being held captive by Russia.
The photographs presented in the “Prisoners of War” exhibition at the Vabamu Museum of Occupations and Freedom in Tallinn tell the stories of Ukrainian soldiers who have been captured and tortured during the war with Russia. The images not only demonstrate the cruelty of the war but also the incredible courage of those who have managed to survive.
According to a press release from Reforum Space Tallinn, the main organizers of the exhibition, these images testify to the grave violations of human rights and emphasize the need for international efforts to bring the perpetrators to justice.
After the exhibition’s official opening on April 25, two movies about prisoners of war will also be screened at Vabamu.
The first is “Prisoners” (42 mins) about civilian Ukrainian prisoners, who were captured by Russian security forces in the occupied territories. The second: “Voice from Captivity. Ukrainians in Russian Prisons” (13 min) is about Ukrainian prisoners of war held in Russian prisons and features real recordings of calls from those who have been captured.
