Content
Swiss filmmaker Eric Bergkraut created this very
personal portrait of Anna Politkovskaja, the Russian
journalist, who was assassinated for her frank reports
on the war in Chechnya. Bergkraut writes an
imaginary letter to the dead journalist, summing
up the state of Russia towards the end of the Putin
era.
