Tere Perestroika

by J.M.K.E.

This morning we took the ferry to Tallinn, Estonia. The main reason was to attend the Back festival, but we also visited the "Museum of occupations and freedom", www.vabamu.ee.

The museum was really  interesting and touching with numerous examples of individual Estonians' experiences in Soviet gulags. The main blips shows pictures of some of the individuals - the pieces of luggage in the sculpture of the extra are also related to this, illustrating the deportations of Estonians to the gulags with different address tags. The last part of the museum was devoted to the liberation and freedom, starting gradually with the perestroika. Hence, the soundtrack - this song was played also in the museum.
