Various initiatives and activists from post-soviet countries and the rest of Europe will be part of this event sharing stories and reports on the situation in their regions. There are plenty of reasons for exchanging perspectives: an increase in repression and a new round of political confrontations are accelerating certain historical processes, not giving us a chance to catch our breath. At this historical turning point, geo-politically and within nation states, we all need to understand and draw up a common assessment around current developments and ultimately think about what to do with Putin.
The festival will be split in two parts: the usual reports and discussions, and an exciting concert. The festival is open to all and is being held in the country closest to Russia with the least risk of being visited by special police units. However, to enter it, you will definitely need a passport and some may need a visa.\
