A wide selection from Behind Walls, the 2008 Noorderlicht Photofestival about life and photography behind the Iron Curtain, is on show in Amsterdam, Warsaw, Poznan and Klaipéda.

"Behind Walls brings a world to life that ceased to exist in 1989"

Proud portraits of the 'worker of the month', clandestine photographs of staged people's manifestations, advertising for products that were not available, forbidden photographs of nude women: Behind Walls provides a fascinating picture of life and photography in the Socialist paradise. In one international presentation the viewer can see how photographers throughout the East Block experienced the world around them, and how the absence of freedom affected their work.
