The publication commemorates the Year of Deportees and Political Prisoners declared in 2023. Between 1940 and 1990, around 300 000 people suffered political repression in Soviet-occupied Lithuania. The terror was aimed at disrupting the structure of the independent Lithuanian society, changing the ethnic composition of the country, eliminating from the society both those who actively resisted the occupation regime and those who were unsuitable for building Communism due to their social status and kinship ties. The album contains around 700 photographs, which consistently reconstruct the fates of Lithuanian deportees and political prisoners: the terror they experienced, forced labour in Soviet industry, as well as survival strategies, the preservation of traditions, the unarmed resistance in the places of exile and Gulag camps, and the burial places of the dead.
