#29: "There is a fire, but nobody cares" - Tasha Arlova

During the summer of 2020, Belarus, its president Lukashenka and police brutality against peaceful protestors were all over the world’s news. Since then, the country has disappeared from the media. The world is looking in another direction now. But that doesn’t mean that the situation in Belarus has changed. Human rights defenders are in detention, members of the opposition are sentenced to multiple years in prison and free media has pretty much disappeared. Tasha Arlova is a filmmaker from Belarus, currently living in the Netherlands and she uses her art to remind us about what is still happening in her country.   AmsterDames Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/podcastamsterdames AmsterDames Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/amsterdamespodcast/ AmsterDames Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/AmsterDamesPodcast/
