Prisoners of Homel detention colony prepare for March 8

The director of the colony Sviatlana Pakhodava has told to BelaPAN that there are enough volunteers to perform onstage both among adults and teenagers. Many of them had no opportunity to reveal their creative abilities at freedom, but here they sing and dance with enthusiasm.

Apart from this, there is a studio in the colony, where the prisoners can prepare video messages to their mothers, sisters and children. DVDs are sold in the colony's shop, women buy them for their own money, record the messages and send to their relatives. There are so many prisoners wishing to use this opportunity that the administration is forced to set time limits to the records.
