In the Russian republic of Tatarstan, a majority of the population is Muslim -- including a few ethnic Russians who have chosen to convert to Islam. The decision to change religions demands perseverance in the face of doubts from Christians and Muslims alike. But for converts like Sabira and Bogdan, Islam offers not only a new faith, but a new way of life. (Produced by Aleksandr Kulygin)
