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

Narrated by Susan Sarandon “Letter to Anna” lays out the entire world of this famous journalist from belief to practice. The documentary details her work in Chechnya and explains the politics she fought for and against.
