...April 2001 was misleading. "The President went out of his way to avoid any hint of gloating over the election results," wrote a reader from upstate New York, "so how did TIME depict him? Smiling in an old picture that gave exactly the opposite impression. Shame on you." A Georgian was just as disgusted: "Your snide attempt to convey that Bush was gloating was below the loosest journalistic standards. Unbelievable!"

But this particular scene is part of Marsho (Freedom), the first-ever Chechen feature film, shot on a $14,000 budget, with a mixture of Chechen and Georgian actors, a minimum of official permission and the tacit consent of local guerrillas. During last winter's filming, Pankisi was a little-known backwater where no Georgian policeman dared tread. Now it is the center of an ominous dispute between the Kremlin and Georgia, as Georgian President Eduard Shevardnadze struggles...
