'd they reserved for children many are ill some have chronic conditions their parents cannot or may not care for them. instead of their mothers they have a boycott who works for an ngo called women of eurasia. the ngo takes care of children from disadvantaged families. nor pint this diet is for girls and boys. why don't you have a look would have brought you a hedgehog. took him you know. why that. and that. don't be afraid nobody will hate you i'm here for. you more you did you miss me my golden girl i missed you too.

children have had to be removed from junkies apartments where the parents are in drugs when you get the child is running around on its own you need it up you know and the parents are basically and responsive and you know you know the quantum says that you know. 1000000 600000 babies were born in russia in 20. $2300.00 of them were abandoned right after their. around 44000 children are officially registered as orphans in more than 1300 children's homes across the country the birth rate in russia has been lower than the death rate for years so the state has created incentives for women to have children a family receives half a 1000000 roubles around $6500.00 euros per child as a one time payment here more education for living costs the scheme is supposed to strengthen families but hundreds of children learned the word mama here in the

hospital that's what they called. the national this child had to be taken away from her parents at 4 and a half months her mother messed up once in her life that's why her daughter is here also. in the moment but i hope she'll get her act together again and then the girl can return to the family until then she has to stay with us. the sensurround schieffer i. want to eat something. so that in the morning there's washing dressing and brushing their teeth we do. a little business that's also the morning routine over 1000 kilometers to the north east in the skins kaia in siberia. the children here are older and they start the day at 7 am with exercises.

16 year old that only cut teflon out is one of russia's nearly $17000000.00 schoolchildren. done one 5th of an hour before breakfast shower make your bed and brush your teeth . they had only come lives in this boarding school with 200 other girls and boys from the region her parents are reindeer herders and members of the indigenous hunty ethnic group for generations they have followed their herds of reindeer in the north of russia. but for the past 10 years this boarding school has been the only class surrogate family. i've grown used to the teachers and i like it at

school better than at my home. most kids kiara is located in the boreal forest or a tiger of western siberia just 2000 people live here half of them are hunty muncy or nets together with around 30 other groups they are officially recognized as the indigenous small number of peoples of the north and some of these ethnic groups have fewer than 200 members and are nearing extinction they are spread across an area that covers nearly 2 thirds of russia. like their own account many of the students only see their parents twice a year for a few weeks in the winter and for 3 months in the summer vacation the rest of the year the state takes care of them providing education meals and a dormitory free of charge in particular in northern russia where many nomadic people live there are dozens of boarding schools like this one.

young school starts at 8 am and goes until 2 in the afternoon then we have nap time until 4 a 4 we get a snack and then we do our homework later we have sports basketball or volleyball score we go for a walk outdoors. patriotic education is an important part of schooling in russia it's supposed to instill a love of the motherland which needs to be defended. the students are obliged to take a course called life safety skills. some of them volunteer for an additional qualification . of was.

splashed for the beginning of the school year they ask us if we want to join a military club from there you learn to march shoot and take apart a weapon if you want to you can say you'll join younger that it does to what and when you can and. most of those who do are boys but there are some girls too like me that for a while. i like weapons when wrong i like learning to use them no matter what mood i'm in it is what i was. even if it ruins my nails it's pretty exciting every kind of weapon not just machine guns. going.

i'm not scared of them i like them. are representative of the next oldest generation prefers using his fists as weapons we need him in the northwest of russia in copy not near st petersburg. cut. above the. last. lap. as a lot of other series just get out. and his name is cheat him a shy of 23 years old one major 90 tall weight 82 kilograms.

ok it is your body that my hands hurt and i got hit on the had 3 children a few dollars but it is he said getting in but i was lucky my opponent fell over it was lucky for me now i can feel the adrenaline in my blood and i feel good as the vision of. this kind of no holds barred fighting has only a few rules you basically keep on hitting until your opponent can no longer defend himself. kitty and michelle i love has been doing this sport for 2 years is nickname in the ring is the bouncer. here reputation counts fighters want to be known as the toughest the quickest and the best other nicknames include wild latino fearsome farmer mighty migrant there are believed to be tens of thousands of young men who fight line. this or similarly in russia

a sizable fraction of the nearly 9000000 men between 20 and 29 years old. for kids boxing is about more than just a show this old brown was. moved from soccer to no holds barred fighting or about but it's all thought and there's a number. they used to be really crazy about football before the wall of what serving in the army changed me to go to but i got out i wasn't so excited about soccer anymore so i started looking for something else. and after work i couldn't just sit around at home i needed to find an outlet for all my energy. dolling theory so i got into the ring and i won my 1st fight with the bill was sort of the 2nd year old but then the 3rd. kid real recognizes that the show fights are brutal but he says fighting helps him to be a nicer guy in everyday life he claims it can help prevent men from being violent in other contexts at home with their family for example domestic violence is

a huge problem in russia but can boxing really help protect families and society as a home. i'm working with online is that if there is so that those experience an explosion of emotion that we don't you're still going to soccer hooligans with a bad time and so on then there's a thirst on the bones and you know what i we don't hate each other or respect our partner but i'm just like you can when he kicks you in the head you're very good. not just at the prison you don't have to release the tension of the tension of daily life. otherwise you start drinking like some people mention i others turn to drugs not another type i just fade away and die because of the monotony of life in russia or new life so to relax some take a parachute jump in some take to drink in the but when you're in the 3rd kind of i guess but i fought the fight with their fists your opinion. i guess i did it is good. though somebody thought i was good it's so important for the little

ones to eat well there's a. pleasure to see where something is when they don't want to eat you then you don't use them at the beginning they stressed out and have no appetite. but soon they settle and then start the same question then they begin growing into health improves. yes. you know what is yet the some of the children have been spoiled with sweets and how. when they come here they have to eat perrichon city. at 1st they refuse but they have no choice and then they start eating everything but those in action i still. chose to bring useful food is coming. here is your compost. so just sit down. there are.

now. 'd a nice man is there. a boy because 24 hour shift at the hospital is over. it's time for the 40 year old to go home to her own family. who work as a professional mother is paid for by women of eurasia the ngo was founded 15 years ago to help the disadvantaged in russia abandoned children people with aids

disabled people women in prison youths from underprivileged families. the organization has plenty to do. according to official statistics around 1000000 people in russia are hiv positive. the leaders organization also accepts funding from abroad which means that she and other employees are listed as foreign agents by russian justice officials it's a stigma but doesn't let it get to her. i think you must know it's quite a. biased attack that you know. we work in several shifts. sometimes 24 hours at a time sometimes only during the day for 2 days on shift then

a 2 day for a year when children from an orphanage come in for an operation we spend the entire time with them on a surgical ward to take care of having to be here sometimes they need just 3 days to recover. but sometimes they stay for 2 months then we visit them every day the worst thing is when they start crying and calling out mama. would just push them we know that from our own children from when we take them to kindergarten and that it wants to stay there. it's heartbreaking to see how they don't want to let me go. just for years. but get ready but i have a trick i distract the kids i say i'm coming the next day i give them something to play with or something sweet to eat. the stuff that you then the nurse comes and i leave. but in the back knew that helps him deal with the separation of car.

a debris story is like mass are part of my work. if i had to carry it around inside me all the time it would be unbearable to miss thoughts about the guy the guy but when i tell my family about what happens to the children . they give me support to get ready. because our level of you would be a lot of a crisis and you know it relieves me to have my loved ones listen sorry. so i can give my wounds to my own children. jim yes them. 2 these children also only see their parents rarely. does. the earth. from june to august its summer

vacation for vet only catch half an hour and her schoolmates. there from my helicopter to the nomad settlements there are no roads or railway lines through the taiga here. was. only the trauma gun river can be traversed by boat it's named after the main 1000 good. little econ is already starting to feel a bit sad. on the one hand she's looking forward to seeing her family. but she knows she'll miss her school which is said to be one of the best in a radius of 100 kilometers.

up a certified call i started 1st grade back when the school opened for the 1st pupils that was 10 years ago. into this debt according to a large scale survey of young people carried out in 2018 by a russian institute with links to the kremlin most russian children would not. miss their schools what do we call our traditional dwelling. on our as a choose that's right a true and in the middle of the show is a fireplace. 7 out of 10 students surveyed said they didn't like school because they had too few subjects that were useful for their lives another study says that students in russia are more interested in environmentalists topics than in russian politics that's certainly true of their own a contest lena and we'll find out more about her love of nature later. this week. but

1st back to call it the no. 2 amateur fighter kid in china off who faces very different problems in everyday life. this is what his working day looks like. a book with card. kill works in a small mobile phone store in a large shopping mall. these are they're not under the knife here's a. good picture over the focal point of this choice or so. miles of i'm in sales and one of us has to win either me or the customer it's like in the ring. maybe there was water inside. what was going to be for a short circuit will have to change the button how soon will we know. after

it's been changed. a lock on my shoulder but i'm bottle but i'm just a fuck about 1st i worked as a security guard for a month or so there wasn't so great because i was at the other a detail and then i started here 1st only once in awhile then full time but it's been good so far. can you all works 12 hour shifts 5 days a week. does not mean you know transport i have to make a conscious effort to stay calm that's also important in the ring because negative emotions won't do you any good in a fight you know you shouldn't let your feelings take over from what you need to keep you cool of the always so if you. are not on board. here at work i sometimes feel like i'm going to blow a few when too many customers want something i want or when they're difficult but i can let all those emotions out in the ring i want someone out of the grocery store

. and emotions are now the topic at the general middle school in the skins kyra like the one. sam i grew up with that was not the most important thing in the dance is to show our national character you know you got the motor still. you have to look at the audience you know where to look right never down at the floor you current and remember the graceful movements be graceful. and don't forget to look to the side to see who is going where. you got there. and smile do you feel girls have beautiful smile so here we go let's unite yet over.

sure you have to show modesty in the. not everyone was smiling like you know. i like our teachers sometimes they're strict with us but then it's our own fault. the teachers in the school only scold us if we deserve it they're pretty fair. fairness is also of importance here as well a safety kid who is training for his next fight.

think if you're going to have just i have to bandage my fingers otherwise i'll have problems with my hands i can break a finger or just locate one anything could happen it's better to protect myself ahead of time but it is to finish your kid he all comes to this gym twice or 3 times a week but he doesn't have a coach. he. just don't want to spend the money. for him scary new video memory i know that i do some movements incorrectly and it's not a good idea for example when you punch you have to use your whole body to my legs are so untrained and wooden but i can't manage to do it so there's not going to bring them there's actually i should find a real trainer somewhere else is going to let me. know what it is. if you know any street fighting it's usually not the perfect technique to win but your ventile will power in just a few days to deal with take part in the championship final and maybe in his next

when. you go and read this right. right. that's nice. little. moment children need a mother that did that's why we hug them. they need human warmth they have to feel that we are taking care of them from watching a pleasing all that helps them get well faster with the physical contact tells them that they are not alone i does not come over to us. the story of this book i'm assuming women that by. the i. shall be telecast yes where is the green pencil did it run away but you know it's give and take little things like them happy and they pass the happiness on to us and we

share their happiness about their 1st steps fs teeth your 1st words bed is covered the world of the theatre. and it's a world where they are no longer so alone even if it is limited by the 4 walls of a hospital room. this is what i need this constant cuddling why do you. it's like a never ending childhood ideas great she was born you know my duty worsley was about seeing my own children have outgrown that they say mom stop hugging us. i tell it of that kind of attention but i'm not i have so much motherly love inside me and i found an outlet for it this is a win win situation for all of us the children are happy and so you could also look up from where you. are

as. the children of the reindeer herders delight in scenes like this it's part of the traditional life of their parents in the tundra. the tundra biome lies north of the boreal forest the tiger woods there are hardly any trees in the tundra but lots of grass food for the reindeer and lots of room for grazing. at the boarding school the boys practice for a nomadic life with lassos instead of basketball this course is compulsory. and complimentary to the life safety skills course and the weapons trail. in a few days some of the children from the school in the sky out will be hurting reindeer

instead of learning math. it's not a prospect that trills. she likes the tundra but she'd rather see the reindeer in the local museum. she has mixed feelings about her upcoming trip home. in. tuned on what i don't know i'd rather be here than at home. here i have the girls and boys around me that i've grown up with. i'll miss them when i'm at home. i stand there will be strange without them. i'm going to cry. but the time to say goodbye comes anyway. fish for the use all your heart your see the writer dash this he writes.

i love also has to pack for the most important fight he's been in to date. this evening is the start of the final round of the championship with participants from all over russia. from copying out wants to be up there with the best of them. getting ill is striving for one thing victory. no matter what it costs. your family sure you're nervous this is the biggest competition of my life. you know to show that every fight is a challenge but this one special for females that i'm. here to look i.

got those team in the last year was 2 shows not just in the last year was when i was preparing my main focus was on endurance that's my weak point. the other is my punch. but also the fact that some states so i train both of those things on my own so starting now we are still super that we are. still cybill when you view it was a new view of little being we were not as appreciative of potholders the vision is to start with if you see this goes give us a vision it will be a bus queue to bring you to show you should grow your best course or you are probably if not the little that is using the book before to look until you have a little overview spirits are going to follow you know what's going to go our well where they're going to get it because a push to be on the list goes there but decide national's whole family is family behavior is pretty funny other than ideal part of most of this compound the early years a body is not going to buy it i'm assured of years that you're going to have to go it's a bit of a lot of people talking to you think there's. much. more to go.

through all this work oh sure it's an ongoing so i will work just to figure out you some. day i believe. we are going to get to this and. meanwhile somewhere down there in the taiga the world's largest forest the only close family is waiting. she takes one last photo with her friends. all the pupils from the boarding school in the us kids will be flown out to the magic settlements with their parents live with their reindeer. look of course sad when they leave but we're also happy 4th street with their

parents have not been missing well yeah well yes so excited because they'll all be flying out at the same time and sitting. glen . just a few minutes to go before the fight 10 pairs of fighters are about to enter the ring kid he has met his opponent for the 1st time today what is he thinking right now. moving into the ring as am i last knew that we're not friends but we mustn't hate each other. for just letting our energy that's emotional release there's nothing more of

a youth so that's what i was about to monty and. i said i'm going to cut down period of time to take the child. a lot of them to such . a discipline the science is like. oh what the.

up us i was. i guess. the end i i c i i i was a pretty good idea. if you're going to be a plastic carrier gets 5000 rubles cash 60 euros for open your mouth. hurt my cheek bones hurt that bite down harder where exactly.

taiga can't imagine living without the other girls in her school but she also can't imagine life without the boreal forest. yet it just missed so i was born in the forest a new boy or my parents didn't go to the hospital. well but i always miss it. i miss some bugs i love to see my dogs bark for joy and my family is happy to see me all that i need to live i just said i'll say a short process. which
