Words of War has everything you want in a film about a David-like journalist fighting a Goliath. The movie begins as a story of someone trying to make a name for herself after spending her entire adult life in the shadows of her profession. What it ultimately reveals, however, is not a blurred line between good and evil but one that is sharply defined with dire consequences.

Words of War follows the history of a Russian reporter and how their notable reputation became cemented in history, believing that a job is more than a job but a profession with a higher purpose. That’s even if her peers, family, and friends knew their reporting came with a toxic warning label. The result is a conventional and standard telling of an incredible real-life figure.
