Justice for Anna Politkovskaya
In Memory of Anna Politkovskaya
(1958 - 07 October 2006)

A group of Finnish
musicians and activists joined forces to create a song for the memory of
Anna Politkovskaya, the murdered Russian journalist. The song "Uuden ajan
kynnyksellä" ("In The Beginning Of A New Era") was first aired on Finnish
radios on 20. 10. 2006, to coincide with Vladimir Putin's visit in the EU
summit held in Finland. A translation is available and the track is
downloadable at

The video, directed by Pete Veijalainen, heavily features footage from a
spontaneous, silent candle-lit protest held in Helsinki after news of the
shooting spread in Finland. Lyrics: Terhi Kokkonen/Music: Kerkko Koskinen.
