Yury Kazakov

Screen adaptation of the story of the same name by Yuri Kazakov: about love, about youth and sad farewell to it.

One day a sick bear cub was brought to the circus to perform with bears. Professional trainers immediately "rejected" the animal, but saxophonist Kolya, who dreamed of training, took pity on little Gosha and spent years to make him a real circus star of international renown. After many years in the circus, the bear Gosha accidentally finds himself in the forest. Noticing the disappearance, circus attendant Mikheev, together with a local hunter, goes in search of his favorite bear.

Four love stories connected by newsreels of the late 60s. Each short story begins with an epigraph taken from the Song of Songs of the Old Testament. The stories are interconnected by documentary shots and numerous interviews taken on the streets from passers-by who are asked the same question: “what does it mean to love?”.

Based on the short story of the same name by Yuri Kazakov.
