It is difficult to write a review about this film. I will give no spoilers except to offer one image. A man is being tortured. A rat is put upon his back, and the rat is covered by a hot pot. The rat caught starts eating its way into the man's back. Some people have died this way. This is a claim made by someone who has been tortured. People disappear. One is well known. Chechnya is part of Russia. I have no opinions. It is dangerous to have opinions. The BBC was brave in showing the film, but my single comment is that it would have perhaps reached more people on its main channel, BBC 1. A documentary that shows love and bravery in equal measure.
