00:00Joy Womack, one of the first Americans in history to be accepted into Bolshoi's revered
00:12academy.
00:13Dobry jutro.
00:14I'm Joy.
00:15The American.
00:16Everyone's wondering how you got in here.
00:24The company is like Russian royalty.
00:27You'll have more chance dancing on the moon.
00:30And, beautiful.
00:31One, two, three, four.
00:32Quintet, quintet, quintet, quintet.
00:33You have talent, but you dance like an American.
00:42This is the Bolshoi we're talking about.
00:47I think everyone hates me.
00:56I expect something inspired.
01:03Why are you closing your eyes?
01:06Sometimes who you are isn't enough.
01:07You have to become something else.
01:10Something better.
01:13What will you do for the role?
01:18How much of your life are you willing to give?
01:24Russian precision, American fire.
01:28Ivanov is such a fool for overlooking you.
01:35All of this for ballet.
01:39Sweetheart, stop all this.
01:42You think I'm some innocent child, but I'm not.
01:48This is me now.
01:50And this is the person I need you to be proud of.
01:55I just wanted to dance.
