On August 27th, an intriguing stand-up party dubbed
"Shats and Checkmate" was performed by Anton Borisov and Mikhail Shats (included by the Ministry of Justice of the Russian Federation in the list of foreign agents) in Yuzhno-Sakhalinsk. This show, described as a chess game of light and dark stories, sees two friends and rivals sharing tales so honest they border on fiction. Their narratives, filled with humor and opposition, aim to unite into a cohesive whole, raising the question: when we lose our home, where do we find it again?
