Question: What do you think would happen if a positive physics teacher living in the Soviet Union and an introverted musician met in a Buddhist temple and got married on April 1st?

Answer: the April Fool's joke will last exactly 40 years, give birth to Lisa Kos and her siblings, and end in divorce right on Valentine's Day. And that's the truth! Lisa's parents have been on a lifelong quest for God, but have become just diligent churchgoers.

It is clear why Lisa Kos from early childhood was extremely devout and firmly decided to become the Mother of God. However, these plans were not destined to come true: Jesus was born a long time ago and he already had a mother. So Lisa had to go to school instead.

As a teenager, Lisa moved to Germany with her parents and tried to integrate. But what is it really like to feel like a real German?

The first thing Lisa did was to put a Muslim headscarf on her head, while taking every opportunity to throw her leg high in a dance-marijchen costume at carnivals beloved by the German public. Lisa diligently studied Turkish and German, and ate copious amounts of döner and fried sausages. As a result, she began to feel something like a dorm room in which a Russian, a Turk and a German live together. At the same time, they not only clash and fight, but try their best to understand each other and, if possible, show mutual respect. Staying together is especially important when all three characters inhabit the same body.
