At thirteen, CJ is already a hot DJ — the only trouble is most of her gigs are in her own bedroom. She can spin discs like no-one else, mix and scratch on the decks like a pro, but in the deader than dead end of town where she lives, almost nobody wants to know. With her spiky hair and spikier attitude, CJ is little Miss Alternative struggling in a sea of normality - but there's no way she's going to let that get her down. (52 x 11min)
