MEMORIAL International conducts video interviews with victims and witnesses of the Soviet totalitarian era in order to preserve their memories for an interested public audience and for the use by experts.
These memories belong to the most important sources of information which still exist today about everyday life of GULAG prisoners and about living and surviving in a totalitarian state.
Our primary objective is to collect and preserve evidence while witnesses are still alive. So far, very few of such conversations with Russian witnesses have been recorded on film.
MEMORIAL is urgently dependent on funding in order to be able to continue the project and to extend it if possible. For donations to the project, please refer to our bank account details below:
