Maria Kalesnikava bei ihrer Verurteilung
Maria Kolesnikova, the last remaining protest leader still in Belarus, gestures inside the defendants' cage at the opening of her trial on charges of undermining national security, conspiring to seize power and creating an extremist group, in Minsk on August 4, 2021. - Kolesnikova, a 39-year-old former flute player in the country's philharmonic orchestra and the only protest leader still in Belarus, has become a symbol of the protest movement in Belarus where Lukashenko, in power since 1994, has been cracking down on opponents since unprecedented protests erupted after last year's elections, deemed unfair by the West.

Stuttgart companions remember their former colleague with artistic contributions. The author Anna Bakinovskaia presents a film about Belarus that also works as a radio play. The director Jasmin Schädler talks about her colleague, the musician Remmy Canedo brings excerpts from the piece noVoice - noBody, one of the last projects that Mascha was able to help create in Stuttgart, and accompanies the afternoon with his electric guitar.
