tanya's competitors are no slackers. and i'm going. to make it big you've got to start small. a rehearsal room into their a provincial russian city eight weeks before the show. lead singer tanya qalqilya is one of russia's youngest rock stars she's eleven. my bandmates are quite a bit older but if i was to play with kids my own age we could never achieve this college say come on there was there are some yeah we're extremely like a family. most importantly we all like rock.

hard rock of their own making both lyrics and music. the band's called molly the little girl which of course is tanya. which is the we speak the same language the age difference doesn't matter although it is there of course for them with the most that and by sight i was supposed to use that on the people wonder and say oh you have eleven year old vocalist so what's the word discourtesy may be small but ambitions of big. boy the city was new . the doors are shut the doors to your soul i pound on them answers i want to know lyrics by eleven year old time. his mother manages the bat. people react differently many don't

understand and think i forced on you to make adult music they ask why are you doing this to her she ought to be playing in the sandbox. insisted the community the internet has its haters we try not to let them affect us. if the news music is bright and clear. it's really hard rock but in a way really easy going and it has a deeper meaning. you know it's been chasing her dream of talent show success for two years. she'd applied for goalless once before but didn't make it past the first round since then she's been rehearsing every day in her hometown to bear. the city lies on the. on the rail line between moscow and st petersburg. it has a small old town and its share of famous authors and artists and someday

a rock star. she hopes. the road to fame leaves her little time for anything else but tanya sure it would be even harder in a big city. but i know what i want my city isn't as hectic as moscow or as sleepy as st petersburg you get in the case somewhere in between yeah i could live on and get my concerts the most. but first she has to win on goalless one of russian television's most watched shows. and it's hunger for new talent seems insatiable. goalless is the russian version of the world famous talent show the voice now licensed in sixty three countries in two thousand and fifteen a separate edition was launched for youngsters from age seven to seventeen. tanya has private singing less. voice teacher musharraf your.

turn has an unusually strong will to sing rock you have to have an inner motive force that you can't sing from sheet music here. and often that motive force is what kids don't have so they're seldom interested in this music so. someone used it to turn you has this inner motive force a natural presence she sings so that you believe her. only. four weeks to go till the show. has got time to go to moscow and sing for an entire orchestra. tania and her voice teacher attend the rehearsal with a russian television channel one. the aspiring rock star kind of work with a well established ensemble that's used to lighter fare. is that

a good idea. to sing again i put back. you. tell me what you think it seemed other so to me try it and i thought it should be a little faster too. how was that for you ok. that was it. he.

was doing as you see we play the song twice as fast as you thought of this. i listened and thought what. just. because they tell me it's all the michael i said nothing else. so they won't have to make the trip to moscow for every rehearsal the families take in a studio apartment in one of the many high rise developments surrounding the make a lot less. than they've invited tanya's band for pizza. the upcoming show is all they talk about. tony's mother has absolute confidence in her you. know my stuff but the high standards for this project are set by the producer channel one russia you know that says. sure. finally the day of the show has come and tanya can show the world what

she can do. she and her voice teacher. look around most film the legendary russian film studio where goalless is recorded. please make sure that you're ready to go on at twenty till eleven. with a bit of luck tania will be sent through to the finals. recording for the sixth season begins in three days. hopefuls have come from every corner of russia with their parents. we don't have any grace illusions but if it works out we'll be happy. we didn't bribe anybody word of honor it's not easy for you considering because crossing the thing is i think.

russia has been in a talent show frenzy for years now. almost every channel has its imitation of goalless high ratings mean lucrative advertising revenues for the broadcasters. well the contestants warm up the studio audience practice applauding. every move is thoroughly choreographed i think called me and said come to go pick your spirits up people here are nice. to see it's. not been my seat has a back some privileged. some cop saying but you have to cop anyway you get

a little money just for watching. these. young performers sing their versions of songs by big star. in the first tears start to flow. as tonya looks on other contestants dreams are shattered one after another. the contestants backstage hear the jury's verdict. tony has to wait ten long hours to go on stage. ending for this long and soon it'll be. because he said i don't want it to be. at last her cue. she does her own interpretation of nirvana's runge anthem smells like teen spirit. the jury

is made up of three famous russian singers they sit with their backs to the contestants judging solely by what they hear. that nobody's turned their chair around by songs and the singers out of the running. tensions are running high backstage. and with tanya's friends and. my.

it's over none of the jury members turned around for tanya molly as eleven year old lead singer just has to suck it up and not break down in tears whatever happens. the show goes on and tanya has to put on a brave face and take or leave with dignity. what can i say she's just not right for this format or rather channel one's not yet ready for time is music. hearing for me. no happy ending for tonya her performance was even cut out of the televised version completely. other youngsters are waiting backstage at most film hundreds of thousands sit at home in front of their t.v. watching and dreaming.
