Screenings

This talk requires a ticket to the screening of «The Dmitriev Affair».


The Russian historian Yuri Dmitriev has been searching for the mass graves of the victims of Stalin's terror since the 1990s. Until he was arrested, he identified the names of thousands of innocent people and provided answers to the victims' families.

Dmitriev also identified the names of the executioners, those whom the current Putin regime hails as heroes. The worst methods of past repression are now being used in Russia - but are Dmitriev's efforts in vain? What can Dmitriev's case teach us about Russian society?


Panel:
- Jessica Gorter, film director of «The Dmitriev Affair»

- A member of Yuri Dmitriev’s family

- Moderator: Norwegian Helsinki Committee (TBA)


This event is in collaboration with The Norwegian Helsinki Committee and the Embassy of the Netherlands.
