"Towards the close of Charles Duncombe's harrowing ensemble piece about human rights abuses by Russian soldiers in Chechnya, a young man asks incredulously, "It's not really possible for people to act like that, is it?"

Some speak as if seeking absolution or to assuage tormented consciences, while others glibly justify these acts by war's brutal logic or as necessary acts of...
