It's white's moves in that picture. Before the bishop moved to f3 the knight was pinned by white's bishop on g2

Before you played ...Bc6 you could not move your Nd5 as that would put your Kb7 in check from Bg2.

Before you move the bishop, the other side's bishop was pinning your knight and your king.

Like stated before that bishop's move knight was between enemy's bishop and yours king. So moving would be impossible.
