Both live in russia the largest country in the world. But russias true greatness it is said lies not in its area but in its people there are more than 146000000. 00 russians each with a story to tell stories full of hope and joy of sadness and anger. I think. Because. Living on our trip through this vast country we need 6 people from 6 different generations right now in the middle east each has much to tell about childhood and youth about working and growing old about life in big cities and in tiny villages about having children and about dying in russia.

Yelena is heading to a storage room to collect some things for the children in her care.
