More than a hundred days have passed since the protests began in Belarus after the presidential elections in August. Women have become the face of these peaceful protests that stand against injustice and violence. We asked Belarusian film producer Volia Chajkouskaya and freelance journalist and citizen activist Maris Hellrand to share their thoughts and to provide a bit of insight into what is happening in Belarus and what it means for us.

In the end of November Fotografiska Tallinn opened the exhibition \\u2018The Future of Belarus Fueled by Women\\u2019 that provides a documentary insight into the peaceful protests of Belarusian women against injustice. The images of the demonstrations captured by local photographers Darya Burakina, Iryna Arakhouskaya, Nadia Buzhan and Volha Shukaila tell the honest, painful, uncomfortable but also very human stories of the Belarusian women who have not stopped dreaming of a better country despite the efforts of \\u2013 and threats of violence from \\u2013 the local authorities.
\\xa0The exhibition can be seen on the walls of Fotografiska Tallinn\\u2019s 1st floor caf\\xe9 until 17th of December and then in Aparaaditehas in Tartu. The exhibition is also accompanied by a virtual gallery that can be found here.
