and don't try this at home. here's a reminder of our top story. nato has switched on. anything so forth for ukraine is had been sold for x as the member states agree keep will join the alliance. but it's not clear when and that's or time by the january 2021. the attack on the united states capital, thousands of people took pods and among them some of these manipulative voices. our former high ranking military leaders wanted us veterans 10 the backs on democracy. and what does this mean for the upcoming election? the enemy within stuff to lie. 12 on d, w. the beauty you know, wants to help both him and his talent. then the last 16 years old as flood the war

and ukraine. and then in the us, um we call this the holy temple says this space helps us live our lives and live here. we forget everything else. can the new law forget his war experiences and dance? the spelling? yeah, i see a lot of false. false is to pete. we don't need to false. false. it's well. the former ballerina from kids is supporting ukraine. however, she's able to new law is our greatest hope issue and i'd like to make them into something special in my passion and relentless practice towards a common goal. again, when is an old category, and this is what i should the but will they when at an international dance

competition in italy with it and as hell will the new law make it to the tom despite the war, the vanilla martco now lives in a suburb of mines, germany, a former ballet student at the key of national opera. he fled ukraine when russian bombs began falling on his home. no dentist was right now when the war broke out coming up and my father came into my room at 5 in the morning. so when you were going to drop me out of bed saying wake up son. yep. and then the war has begun breakfast at 1st, i thought it was a joke. yeah. what was the, what's this all about? but i'm fairly eager to we're bumper. yeah. then a 2nd strike hand team of vincent. them. we have the move i was up and by the 3rd

strike, i thought the windows will be blown out of the panes almost, and on the slip in there, every thing would be destroyed. oh, what a shot after that, something needed to be done. i had to ask for someone else. i talked to my father about it and he called the the number and we said, yes, he can come stay with me unless, cuz i like, oh my god, on the bus. i asked them when they came here. oh yeah, i see on left homeless. we have the at either, you know, starting us ballet school. everyone is on their feet today. last night, buses from ukraine, pulled into the school courtyard. tomorrow they'll set off for the war zone. everybody pictures in including eating his valet students or several weeks now the school director has been stock piling, material donations, and the seller the what's in these boxes. yeah, that's is this is not feed for children so that the 0 that's children's things in

the hills. yeah. stuff for women to man, man. last to the whole device, dana status do not collect supplies to order people right to her personally, straight from the war zone. hospitals ask for medical equipment, children's homes for shoes. often it's the dancers were driving out to reach ukraine's smallest villages. it's a huge undertaking for it again as helpers. denila takes it in his stride stuff, but somebody didn't was the ticket to pick a new? yeah, it was like the best as i knew it wouldn't come by. the a says it's like practice for him because he also has to lift and carry the goals lamp and it's good training. i am guessing that the some guy and then with the thing cuz it is so good coleman, he is or should i should though he came from such a difficult situation himself this alice on this experience to to present doesn't

too much about it. but i know he's been deeply affected, the chief because he's the one that you got to sit the toners. got his eyes on that and i can say he's young of pocket, but he's doing a great job. and i but the 0 for the and he works very hard at his, by a he or um, rather than to how he copes with the tool as a young man. so it's really amazing. i mean, you're a good one. and this comes to the bus. now in a transport vehicle will be filled with as much as possible break time no rest of though for the new law and his 14 year old dance partner of love and tina. they still have afternoon rehearsals for a dance competition in 4 weeks time. the

the new law and exceptional talent comes from a dance dynasty. they all have a new tab that says um and get them from his and his father and i dont together at the same time. oh my, his grandmother was a star and ukraine had done girlfriends. that does his father called and asked us, can you save us? because if he can't train then that said by whenever we had just finished putting in unless this he said, or i can only send him to you. i live now. my new kansas is his own child. then a 15 year old boy, man, this is, i done this kid that i didn't think about it for a 2nd and said, yes, i cannot hug for sick when they get back to ensure class me as fuck well enough. but now that i'm bob, bob, bob? yeah. young phones on done. yeah. no, that's to as a, it seems to just have just said, you know, the bus and we stopped. but that was a dream of a great career doing as right now and ballet school. it just that it's what every

student is going after. the former star ballerina from kids is one of only very few teaching talented young dancers classical ballet at a world class level. the meaning of the pod to do from swan lake is a do. it usually danced only by adults, so the way the, the dual trains for 6 hours each day. puberty has effectively been called off the, the, within the owners input. that either way we find ourselves in the midst of pbc with a lot to achieve soften. we have to make the leap from a child's, the instruct to, to as open instruct. you lied to the system of school at 2 of i should have muscles that we just carrying children's buttons miss. now suddenly support much heavier,

but slow to uh, take on the less than with us as to owns should be able to use if we then consent ourselves with the problems of puberty investigator. we'd never moss throughout profession, young official problem and all the shots and the ones that have little of some of the hash and probably isn't for everyone. let this issue, i la, issues when the state and the moment the teacher knows the choreography of almost all the classics by heart. but of course, from a female dancer, as perspective today, it, ina, is getting support on the male perspective via face time, from a cause like friend of hers. also a star dancer. he's performed swan lake hundreds of times, the

tanners, kaiser, and more little thing. kids in the background and say, when does he have to stand behind his palm that he a voice, the west point of balance down to the millimeter milling with advisor. and then did you at goes to macy and then is the way of fluids please. the in 4 weeks time, you'll be displaying his talent in front of an international jury for the new law and slogan, tina the swan lake and don quixote, do us represent a great challenge. then we have to build you a bit by bit with that said that you're in top shape in time to the competition that i'm the annual physicality and jewel monroe morales. and those have problem with you think goes to problem. but the physical aspect is what we've got to focus something does store the

a me, yes, most of it's a lot of fun to dance with how to do with him. she is, you, i'm, it's as if he's always been hand over as if he were phone here along side all my other children and it came down to our was the slow and there's nice control. okay . yeah, of course i missed my parents meeting. i called them every day so the china will as low as it was very difficult at 1st. oh yeah. and when i 1st arrived here and i didn't understand anything, only it was a new language for me. oh, everything was new prospect. so no, no, i'm just national energy. i met people here, we please ukrainians. and we've become friends when bundled room is i'm going to especially in ninana. she's ukranian herself and she's always there for her own people. always saying that the state, the thing is, the more that's the thing back from just the general. so that's how i've been able

to adapt me. yeah. so i've been living here for more than a year and they're like being here and. and especially because things here are much better than in ukraine at the moment. and i think the national i was trying to trim their you can't do anything um. okay, and they're not even go to school. i mean, that's almost done. i've done the mutual thing is the only time will shift as low as and then for the age shipment, elaina ordered a $150.00 pairs of shoes for a ukrainian children's home delivered in error to her cousin. kind of told them this, this, this box is a pretty heavy, haven't because they said they need to choose a different machine. so mine, so between cesar so we've done typo general, she's for all of them publish to any a few pairs of some of shoes. know when you get the of the shop and by the way,

enough for this along with her appetite, she's lost a bit of weight since the outbreak of the war. she's been restless and always wants to help me. yes. yes ma'am. crammed the same side were those also blankets? yes. the 89 has negotiated a discount from this furniture store and going to send a retirement home. your vin, it's yeah, urgently needs towels. yeah, that's just how is it? okay. you also have trash bags. yeah. docusign key. mm hm. because we send this over in trash bags not boxes. i'm assuming kathlyn richardson asking people for help for ukraine. customer, it's become a daily task for either email. yeah. okay, thank you. thank you so much. i hope the people like them. thank you. you too

bye. on that line too. thank you. have a nice day. you too. thanks. the clock is ticking. the departure is set for that afternoon. so this, well, the last year they were able to send the generators twice from here to ukrainian theaters and leave and odessa, and fire extinguishers for museums. 80 now has also brought her mother out of the war zone. you should then be spending. now people everywhere want to help you crane because we are very grateful for that. which one even more? you know, we want for the chaos along the hor, lawlessness. to be over as quickly as possible. we've received you eating. that has

also taken in the valet master and a dancer from the key of national offer. okay. yeah. and for sure, i hope you just told him that everything is well. get better. yeah. where the dog come from me from here here. is that because we can't see with our families. so instead of farming that expanded this, i think it helps me understand both our teaching, editing that school goes or who does that i it's and i forget that we try very hard to find work and many of us have tried to return to craig and besides that it's very difficult under the current circumstances now. so it looks like we have to look somehow into the future and work his work when he wasn't. but i say, i told as the bus driver is our expert packers. now

a visit from the chairman of the local german ukrainian association. hello. yeah, so yeah, trunks all ready for? yeah, this is yes. this is for the children's home on the oh, does have a noun uh, and the rest is already in there and that's what i said. that was the hottest bit. we packed tool this for the old people's time. who are this time? perfect. that's great. lucas augustine has been organizing a donations since the outbreak of the war a year on a lot of persuading is needed to keep the money flowing in. he knows the bus driver as well and appreciates their work. you spend because sometimes thoughtful, i know we received this donation just a week ago on saturday and it's kind of this is very fresh. how much on now we can see that a week later, we've already sent it off to ukraine locked in. just asked the driver i todd is will arrive in 2 days time, the children's home and the let's see and key a clinic and key of a new name i for the old people. so what ends on different drivers they are, will send the food to me so we can prove that hasn't just ended up in some stone

pile. the kinda thing in it, right where it's needed type for shipping. so it'd be like start tables to balls to that's the custom, those are the we have to be strong and stick together even if the too slow we must them to give us. the word for commitment has spread and today 89 as being well comes into the minds of rotary club. hello. hello. are you excited?

very much of course vincent on a multi also for the us has already been mentioned to you have a wonderful talk for us here in october 19th. we have this as a symbol you can wear to display your membership pin. may i present it to you? i don't want to thank you device with my warm congratulations of feeling accepted into her clothes. are those are the generators donated for theatres in odessa and leave had been her greatest wish that one mustn't get too wrapped up in other details for a country like cream, a long history. the protection of culture is, of course, also vitally important. visiting exhaustive, i just like i know,

i know lucas augustine deliberately presents images of the most recent russian attacks in order to make the needs of the people in the war zone. tangible lifestyle is combination for you can't imagine what you do. those generators have done that every evening. people can have a couple of hours of pace. now on this, it's hugely significant. so it's, it's st q for everything. so i know p i to do to do in times like these can give a little bit of life and 11 cents and cannot joy because in this situation that's a different thing. so i thought so much and i think that's very important right now because it's true, as i thought, saves the weld. this is sufficient for the new law,

the war and his home country can often feel very close where he comes as he talks on the phone to his family and kids at the same time, he has the competition to concentrate on until now he's been lacking a modern piece to present to the jury. so far he's only ever danced classical ballet. that's why he's meeting slogan, tina today in another dance studio in mines. they're here to rehearse a short piece of love story. for that, they both put aside their classical training to get the support they need from a contemporary choreographer. stuff and the laptop, the task flow. sorry from the beginning. yeah. i don't know kind of feel like a pillow. this is like a back. yes. yes. that's it. so you start to see how here you've seen this in 15 days,

even though this is a tough to fit. yeah. and go a look at. yeah. yeah. you have to look at the from the look she to issue. you say you say, oh my god, you say is you to death not look what they do. look like they do. come with me. photo me come here into my word soft and she goes, who up? a lot of movie in a soft story. so yeah, i see, i'm not a false. false is to pete. we don't need to false. false. it's, well, i don't want to dance. we spoke because i know you can go to stupid stuff. your dentist. that's because you want to touch the sort of the people or she does because you want to reach emotion. you want to express where you are. you want to express your story. you want to say i love to dance because you want to share with

the nice 1st time working with me. and i think it's different these 1st time working in this time, which is the dense company started. since i'm seeing those, those special, we use the cost to go to base, but just moving them on down the way result of trees through out of all positions. and then when i worked with danny, i see that isn't it's a bit of resistance which is bony. like if you would try to keep his tone, to be strong at the moment, maybe because of his pay, that live is get strong. but the idea of the day, yes, to fund which seems to everything to them was not which i think can come with interest and you'd be more time. yes. and then when he comes into the valet, how can you feel when the new isn't doing well? when there's been another attack on key, for instance, the see to see if i can have the energy. yeah. and his expression sierra how he looked at all those the you're trying to help him. yeah. yeah. as all of us have to dance school do that. but we do we take a here,

do we i'm there. send up to by yourself. yeah. and do we here? i'm next to be the no, no the we stuff the pre the we do we are. i'm daf file. i'm there for her. i'm not putting her here color. cool. well, mom think i'm on time is because your body. so you have to make sure that when you speak to out can i to creating that people can understand what you say. so when you do so, i'm seeing each finger, each part of your body is where any spinning to end is that it gets you sharing isn't just fair and destination knowing designation. so knocking gotta be though the sun. i'm not time a yeah. and now in the scene. yes. yes. well i see a lot of feed per hub. yes. good. continued eh, gushing tech. no pace. what do you see? what do you see?

what do you see and you have ama. yeah. so you, i want, i want what you want. thing like fit honey. do you want to try? so now you do this, you see the family. i won't, i won't, i will don't want it. interesting your eyes, what to see if you do this next then. so as you want to in the 1st price. so you want to show the technique do when you move to when you pop now and we wow your best limits. it's a lot of fun as, as a split great working with a lot to the set and it's also a lot of fun. we've done the last minute dining like this pitch fast. it's not as stressful, it's kind of so fish class my it's just nice to desmond. so thompson was the 20th. no, no stress. all good. all for. meanwhile, at the home of ukrainian unaware re console. lucas augustine is updating hands. you

don't want to get a to large cap, was to a to use, but directly to the recipient i. the next one spends on a t liked food in impacts only possible with friends here in germany with their we arrived send both here and in. great safety always can as long as they will cut, you know, in just 2 days after the party from eating as dan school comes news from the bus drivers with photos and videos, they document the successful delivery to a children's home in ben, it's yeah, the retirement home and the clinic back editing this dance school. it's final changes to the costumes. it's only 3 days until the competition in italy, vanilla watches videos of his favorite dancer, me excited about ation, and called over and over and just uh,

managed to be honest. i do have a dream of the 2 chests. maybe a dream anyhow. excellent. then we have to go to america and live there the yeah, what's the most? the newest one would be me. my favorite dancer bodies nickel. so if she went to new york and begin working in the new york city ballet, the online we have sold on, you know, both of them have watched them in video soup on and off and imagine what it would be like to suddenly be there myself in your venture with my tail or in my stomach. oh my gosh, i'm good with the technician. know what, but a lot can happen. who can we is i'm, i don't know. can i hear slash? the thing is minutes, i'm getting his man. unfortunately it's ending up. no, but after placing in the italian competition would bring him a great deal closer to that dream for years now in a start us diaz, protege is have been among the best the costumes have all come from

a renowned key of theater. taylor for a $22.00 for the blacks. one costs 1200 euros for 80. no, nothing else we'll do. where's my gosh, i get the efficient to push 0. you have students lean opinions will also be traveling to the competition and that they're, they're saying individually. filica lot, that was on the morning, i bought a, you know, is still not satisfied with down the lowest cost. you hear again, she's 6 advice from the cars like master my a face time. not the black one. maybe the blue one even. so then the allow me to says no decoration for the competition. well, perfect. yeah, that's what was the costume has to stand on its own costume. now. all the costumes were once worn by 80 and his husband, another former solo dancer from key of new this one also doesn't fit to

and then it's going to us. but if it's restrictive here, then when the muscles have no space to move in as when you're shipping and then he calmed lift, kind of shipping and then come out of him. what i was, what was that? a lot of them in my head because i teacher always said the valet is something specialist i was just when you wrote down the street. everyone has to see that you'll something special based on that just working cost. everyone has to with maya you, how beautiful we don't know why, but that's how we see is a furnace of a different how you move, how you, who is the, how you turn your head, how you love to have you. um, so what kind of voice you have has the amanda says i would if that is the positive valet trainings, the initial it's while it was, even though new can you make it tied to at the bottom? it shouldn't hang loose here. so what it needs to be phone fixing is that next but loose through at the tone so that it doesn't pinch when he's lifting my book of with this with no

young showing you, but now i'm not afraid of going into the competition 0. i'm so i'm going there and dancing like it'll be a great experience for me because of the wind blowing up and i'm going to the front of me. i don't want to to mess thanks to my teacher really, you know, and how shall i say it? i guess cuz it gives me the guidance to do everything correctly. and so that all went to almost the end you can say it that way. and yeah, i'm certain of it actually physically. i'm fully convinced. oh, we're here to wait and late though. italy for one week, the engine town is transformed into a bustling center for dance. as he now has travelled here with lena 17 and the new law. all 3 have already made it through the preliminary around

the young talents from around the globe compete and split to us theater. ukraine has a number of talented performers in the competition. russia, on the other hand, hasn't submitted a single entry this year. the jury sees classical and modern pieces in knock out rounds presented individually and in groups. aiding us, 3 pupils are about to have their turns every few minutes talented dancers from all over the world are displaying the results of their years of practice. for the semi final, the new law and 17 now will present their modern piece by stephan deluxe. the new, the new, the are you nervous? the lawyer sent me is feeling secure.

an exchange with another ukranian dancer in exile. the so once more they go over what the lots have taught them for the love see above all, letting go, releasing their inner resistance. will it work? the nervous 80 now has taken her seat in the box. it's a high caliber jury valet directors, former soloists, dance critics, the

of the, the class a wonderful showing it he couldn't be prouder of her students. is kind of that guns, that's my making does. i can say that my children of the best in the world, but i stick portion of that true professional sites and they've shown twice on the stage that they're the highest level. fagan. oh sure, sure thing it was. they were together like one organism was on one, me i know getting these ones wouldn't be upside an hour and without performance will show how well when in every aspect and i live, but i should for her. it was also

a trial for ukrainian culture. nothing. now stands in the way of her 3 proteges reaching the final since leading ukraine 17 now has become very important to the new law. he spent many hours in the ballet hall with her, and he wants to win with her. the next day the finals are scheduled for that evening. all evening sees a picture ask spotlight though is this bar. she quickly organizes a few sandwiches. you've got kind of got this basically no time that they have to get something to eat. some albums on they need additional extra energy to get them through the evening. so

it's to come now it's quickly into the theater to rehearse for the final flow in tina and the new lot will present the power to do from don quixote to the jury. the the, the most difficult aspect stage isn't flat the nuisance. we don't have to

do every say, here's what we have to of trying to everything because this tilted stages, the surprise, the, the incline stage provides a better review from the auditorium. but all the previously reversed jumps and turns need to be adjusted. the the jury arrives back stage. daniela and sloan and tina run through donkey hardy in their minds over and over again, the 1st payment of dances the and does so flawlessly, the

ukrainian pad on the back. now it's make or break for the new law and slogan, tina the of the

was that perfect enough to place? well the each of the salesman, i mean the dealer and the deal that was actually good. but you got distracted by the music. i told you that the phone does listen to my attention to the choreography, if you would follow jerome tenant how everything would have been fantastic. so that when you left, she did, she was satisfied. but there was some criticism in there's always critique invalid . there's nothing is ever perfect in bella and to come up with critique, but needs a lot for the next time, the best service, even in training months to reach her goals faster as a problem for them is the fact that it's important that i don't present myself here

as a child in the bottom as a mature adult to answer the phone. so if she can get them to the, the the for the children and young adults now comes a trial of their patients already fully costume for the gala afterwards. they wait an attorney for the results. it has been an exhausting week at the peak of their performance. the

pain of the evening is a trial. the 13 year old. when's the jury's grand prize? and goes home with the scholarship for the valet academy in rome. the new law also receives the coveted prize for his performance and the due ad but there is no prize for his partner in tina the brutal reality of the battle to be the best in the world. adena is shocked and has to console the new law despite his victory

from the one end of close, i'm happy to to with my students or something that i just don't understand. why did only the new lowe received the award? the why didn't sign seen a surprise see, what was the bus, he still has worked to do 2 years younger is a cavity. we weren't ras, just a little less stressful. is there things you pick up precisely from a competition like this, with outcome? 80 and a status thing i may have taken top placing with 2 of her 3 pupils. but above and beyond that, she has saved her protege, the new little monk, gulf from the horrors of war
