I interpreted Anna Melikyan's "Pro lyubov'" ("About Love" in English) as a look at the question of how we define love in the 21st century. For example, in the first segment, anime fans Lena and Igor are in a relationship but have never seen each other out of costume. When they finally see each other out of costume it's awkward. Meanwhile, other characters spend all day with their gadgets or video games (as if to say that they love artificial things more than they love people). There's even a man whose goal is ridding Moscow of anything that he deems ugly (including a monument to Peter the Great).
Like "The Stroll" and "Elena", "About Love" uses its plot to pose the question of where Russia is going in the 21st century. Whether its the office manager who has to satisfy her boss's desires, or the lecturer's discovery about her former lover, something surprising happens with each character. We see the relationships of the people attending the lecture - and how they cross paths with each other - but there remains the issue of how this will get affected by outside events (that's my interpretation anyway). The movie has some impressive camera work and editing to move the story along. I recommend it.
