November 8, 2016 marks 55 years since the very first KVN program went on the air. "Club of cheerful and resourceful" knew good and bad times. For censorship reasons, it was closed in 1972, and was revived only in 1986. But even without the air, KVN existed on student and amateur stages, lived, developed, changed with time and country. There is not a single similar television centenarian in the world. So who are they, the inventors of this "perpetual motion machine" Muratov, Yakovlev and Axelrod?

After the collapse of the Soviet Union, Natasha immigrates as a child with her family to Germany. The film begins today, twenty years later, when Natasha returns for the first time to her unknown home. Natasha's time in Baikal Port is mainly structured through her everyday encounters with the people who live there. In different situations, she meets them and gets into conversations about employment and living conditions that are still marked by the effects of the Perestroika. While Natasha gains these intimate insights into different ways of living, she reflects on her own position and tries to make a connection with this place, which is a part of her identity. The cinematic drawing of intimate portraits of people living in Baikal Port as well as Natasha’s play- acting as a returning, identity-seeking figure is accompanied by an ever-present recording camera. It shakes, zooms and focuses, it behaves like an autonomous body. This always raises the question of who is the actual experiencing body of this journey – the person behind or in front of the camera?
