"Profoundly moving, politically provocative and apt to provoke moral outrage." —Daily Variety
Directed by Marina Goldovskaya
Marina Goldovskaya’s documentary on famed Russian journalist Anna Politkovskaya powerfully tells the story of her colleague and friend who was murdered in 2006 while investigating the most controversial actions of the Russian state. Exceedingly intimate, the film astutely observes the principled determination that sealed Politkovskaya’s fate, and the adulation of countless Russians who viewed her as their only intercessor with justice in the period between perestroika and the fall of communism.
