Three Comrades

The story of Ramzan, Islam and Ruslan, three friends from Grozny. Through their tragic experiences and perspective as victims, Novikova recalls one of the most forgotten and obscene wars of our time. The film is constructed around footage that Ramzan Mezhidov, shot as a cameraman for Grozny TV during the war. Such footage is extremely valuable documentary material, since it constitutes one of the few internal perspectives on the war to date.
