Julia Loktev's acclaimed documentary, ‘My Undesirable Friends,’ follows young Russian journalists in the months before and after Putin's invasion of Ukraine — and the impossible choices they face when dissent means prison or exile.

Also, jazz historian Kevin Whitehead revisits a two-night set Miles Davis did in Chicago in 1965.
