The recent discovery of gravitational waves calls for developing new techniques to model dynamics of compact binaries.
One of the approaches is to apply effective field theory where a compact and rotating object is modelled by a massive
higher-spin particle interacting with the gravitational field. Kerr black holes were found to feature the most simple interaction
within this paradigm, which gives a hope to find the complete theory describing dynamics thereof without any input from numerical and other approaches. I will present the recent progress in this direction.
