Siberian Children by Triin Kerge is an audio-visual work made in a moving tram. In it, the artist portrays six women who were either deported to or born in Siberia. Over the past few years, together with the art group SLED, these women re-visited their former childhood land. The work was created in collaboration with the musical collective, Eeter.

The Return, a video work by Marika Alver, focuses on the difficulties that deportees met when they came back from Siberia. Memories of home and hopes for a future in the homeland did not always match the reality.
