The Boy's Word: a true story about Kazan street gangs of the late 1980s

Friends and athletes Artem Vladimirov and Sergey Bastrykin went on an unprecedented expedition to the Krasnoyarsk Territory, Khakassia and Tuva. This segment of the route runs along the R-257 Yenisei highway, which is why friends called it the Yenisei Marathon. In a month, they traveled more than 1,100 kilometers, spent the night in tents and risked their lives more than once. Why and at what cost did they get this extraordinary journey?

An ideal sports career is an Olympic champion, two-time world champion, three-time champion of Russia and Europe in ice dancing. But in January last year, a sudden illness almost took Roman Kostomarov's life. He was in a coma, doctors performed several operations on him and had to amputate his limbs. Forecasts for recovery were less than a percent. But he survived. Thanks to the love and support of his family and loved ones, he did not lose faith and embarked on the path of recovery. And 11 months later, Roman went back on the ice with his partner Tatyana Navka to perform their famous program "Carmen", which brought them an Olympic gold medal. He, like his hero bullfighter, was able to tame the disease and regain a full life.
