Belarus is said to be Europe's last dictatorship, a country damned as an outpost of tyranny by the US. Witness follows Elyssa Livergant, an acclaimed Canadian playwrighter, as she secretly travels from London to Minsk to collaborate with the Free Theatre of Belarus. It is a rare glimpse into this closed society, a powerful testament to the struggle for freedom of expression and a moving story about the power of art.
