The movie begins with Politkovskaya asking, “Do you think if there is a war in one place it has no bearing on another?” This is, as producer Mark Maxey says, a “tragically timely” reminder that every conflict, whether country against country or power against the press, can be our story much faster and much more painfully than we imagine.
