According to a traditional Russian song for children, girls are made of “flowers”, “gossip” and “marmalade”, while boys are made of “energy”, “batteries” and “fireworks”. Challenging these outdated notions, the film rewrites the lyrics. A young girl is shown singing the traditional verses of the song. However, on seeing some of Russia’s most accomplished female athletes, she adds that girls are: “Made of strength – and of bravery. Made of freedom. And of achievements. They are made of what they do.”
