Immortal Fortress: A Look Inside Chechnya's Warrior Culture


Bloodied and demoralized, Russian units withdrew from Chechnya in September 1996-a year and a half after it bludgeoned its way into the Chechen capital of Grozny. But the war is far from over. In fact, Chechnya's continuing conflict with Russia is a story that spans centuries. Award winning Immortal Fortress and its producer/director Dodge Billingsley take the viewer on a dangerous behind-the-scenes journey into Chechnya, exploring the tiny mountain republic's war driven culture while searching for its most popular modern warrior, Shamil Basayev. After centuries of blood feuds, battle traditions, and resistance to all foreign occupiers, the warrior cult defines Chechen society. Every Chechen man is first a warrior, then a farmer, baker or oil worker. Shamil Basayev personifies this warrior spirit. To Russia and the west he is considered a terrorist, but in Chechnya a hero. His battlefield exploits have become legendary. The surprise attack on the Russian city Budyonnovsk in 1995 and the invasion of western Dagestan in 1999 have brought him international attention. Immortal Fortress is a riveting look behind the scenes of one of the world's most controversial men, and answers the broader question of why Shamil Basayev and thousands of other Chechens fight.

Chechnya Leader honouring the blessed Bowl of Prophet Muhammad Peace Be Upon Him


This is a beautiful clip of how the Chehnyan leader Ramzan Kadyrov hosted the blessed drinking vessel of Rasoolullah salallahualaihe wasallam. The love, attachment and tears of longing, are not found for a single leader of today, yet the people of Chechnya have shown that any item linked to Rasoolullah salallahualaihewasallam is esteemed beyond comprehension. May these people be part of a even greater reception by Rasoolullah salallahualaihewasallam on the day of Judgement. Ameen.

Life in Chechnya before the Russian aggression...


I just love the drunk, smoking firemen, like in a scene from Mad Max, pretending to extinguish a huge bonfire at a petrol installation. After they finally put it off (with a tank shot !), we see bits of daily life in Grozny, before the city was to be obliterated by the Russian aviation, all culminating with a march of the Sufis through central Grozny. I will later post the complete collective trance ceremony (zikr), which was then held every Thursday afternoon, in front of the building of the government. Rough footage from my next movie "A Chechen Confession", about the Chechen Sufi Islam.

A mountain village in Sufi Chechnya...


This Chechen village hosts the tomb of a holy woman: the mother of Kunta Haji, the man who brought the Qadirya Sufi brotherhood in pagan Chechnya, in the XIXth century. As the imam says in the fascinating local dialect, Kunta Haji will come at the end of the world, together with Jesus, like a new Mahdi. Scenes of daily life, children, cows, snow, autarchy... Sufi Chechnya before the Russian invasion. Rough footage from my next movie "A Chechen Confession". It will contain a presentation of the traditional Chechen Sufi Islam, with all the pagan, pre-Islamic elements that it still contains. For the Sufis, the Great Jihad is the fight against one's own ego. The Little Jihad is the less important fight against the infidels.

Chechnya After 1996 Independence


After the first Chechen war in the mid 1990s, Chechnya was giving de facto independence by Russia. The Chechens had 3 years to take care of their own affairs but the war-ravaged republic fell into chaos and the country was essentially controlled by the Chechen mafia and Islamic militants. Chechnya was essentially an Afghanistan where radicals and criminals sought refuge. Then in 1999, Chechen Islamists with expansionist ambitions invaded the neighboring Russian republic of Dagestan in an attempt to establish a pan-Islamic state. After that, the situation spiraled out of control leading to the Russian incursion and the start of the second Chechen war.
