"I am not afraid of imprisonment, I am afraid of what I will find outside when I get out of prison.

Will I find a country that fights for freedom, democracy, and a European future, or will I find a country [conquered] by the propaganda, by economic challenges... Will I find a country conquered by Russia without a tank?!"

🚡🇬🇪 High above a Georgian mining town, rusting cable cars hang motionless on their lines. Built to carry miners and ore across the mountains, these small metal cabins were nicknamed "metal coffins" by the those that once used them for their daily commute.

Nowadays, the cable car network is under renovation. But, some relic cars and Soviet Modernist stations can still be explored.

🏛️🇬🇪 A grand Soviet-era culture house lies abandoned in the mountains, built in the 1950s as a venue for workers’ collectives. Its facade carries the influence of Greek architecture, with a portico entrance and classical lines that set it apart from others of its kind.

Once a theatre, cinema, and library, today it stands empty, its halls silent and its stage long unused.
