Shahak Shapira is an Israeli-German comedian with Arab roots performing stand-up in English. It’s a mess. Being a walking container for some of the world’s most problematic identities hasn’t stopped him from traveling the world and performing for audiences who are nothing like him - just to find out whether they might be anything like him after all. In „Selective Identity“, Shahak tries to find punchlines while talking about roots, never fitting in, depression, the search for a home, heartbreak, war, racism, and many other light-hearted topics.
