Germany | 2008

Synopsis
On October 7th, 2006 Vladimir Putin’s 54th birthday, the journalist Anna Politkovskaya is shot in the lift of her Moscow home.

But the murder is also a political act, for Politkovskaya was the President’s fiercest critic with regard to the war in Chechnya. Why was she shot in cold blood, this elegant woman who was always on the side of the weak and those who had no rights?LETTER TO ANNA – a personal quest featuring numerous previously unpublished recordings.LETTER TO ANNA – a political film, which shows how the Russian government is putting the wheel of history in reverse and sheds a dramatic light on the current status of freedom of press and opinion in Putin’s Russia.Contact:p.s. 72 productions GmbHBrandschenkestr. 728002 Zurich, Switzerlandtel.: 41 (0)76 364 85 82info@ps-72.comwww.ps-72.com
