Summary |
The complexities and incongruities of human relationships in a pointless war are navigated in confronting detail in Captive, the riveting adaptation of Vladimir Makanin’s 1994 short story ‘A Prisoner Of The Caucasus’. Set against a breathtakingly beautiful yet hostile landscape, Captive depicts a day of absurdity, intimacy and terror in the Second Chechen War, described in history as Russia’s Vietnam |
