The Train Station:
Chechen women, in traditional headscarves and skirts, slap cement on salvaged bricks in an attempt to put Grozny's bombed-out train station back together. The women, many of whom lost husbands, sons and fathers in the war with Russia, work without pay. Their only reward is distraction from their grief and doing something for their city. Chechen men, afraid of leaving their homes and being arrested by Russian soldiers, usually do not participate in the rebuilding efforts.
