Four Stories About Love


Four different love stories inspired by the news broadcasts of the late 1960s.


"Four Stories About Love" narrates four different love stories inspired by the news broadcasts of the late 1960s. Each story begins with an epigraph taken from the Song of Songs of the Old Testament. The stories are connected to each other through documentary-style shots and interviews where random people on the street are asked "What is love?". The stories are adapted from the works of Ion Drutse, Avenir Zak, Isaiah Kuznetsov, Yuri Kazakov and V. Sapozhnikov.

The film shows its audience what love means, the thoughts of different people on this subject, and the effects of love on their lives. These four stories reveal the universality of love and how it touches different people in different ways. The audience gets the opportunity to get to know the unique features and characters of each story.

The film causes the viewer to question their own thoughts about love and to reconsider what love means.

The film was likely shot in Russia in the late 1960s.
