The Stroll

Девушка и двое ее случайных спутников проходят пол-Петербурга, флиртуя, пикируясь и за полтора часа реального времени проживая любовную драму. Прогулка эта, наполненная смехом и слезами, обыденной суетой улицы и какой-то почти зловещей тайной, держит зрителя в постоянном напряжении, но разрешается совершенно неожиданно. Впрочем, финал фильма, столь же непредсказуемый, сколь и закономерный, ставит все на свои места, навсегда соединяя рассказанную историю с городом. Такого Петербурга еще не было. Это не памятник, не фантом, не призрак, не руина. Это Петербург on-line - прекрасный суетный город, в котором легко и мучительно живут молодые русские европейцы.

«Мне двадцать лет. Век двадцать первый...»

While Olya, a twenty something buxom, is taking a stroll in Saint Petersburg, Alexey (Alyosha) approaches her, starts chatting, flirting and makes friends with her. She says she's a habit of fantasizing situations and making stories. She agrees to go with Alexey to Moscow, but insists that she'd pay for her ticket. Alexey starts loving her and believes she loves him too. He wants her to meet with his close friend Petyunya (Petya), who joins them after a while. Olya confesses to Petya that she's not made up her mind to go to Moscow with Alexey, and that she finds him more mature than Alexey. As she becomes friendly with Petya too, Alexey becomes jealous and asks Petya to not spoil their relationship. But Petya declines and tells him that she is more suitable for him. Soon they end up in a fist fight over a petty matter related to Olya, and she mediates to stop the fight. After a patch up, they continue walking, chatting and friendly banter. As they huddle in a shelter, Olya says it was a great luck that they met. She fantasizes that they are in an adventure novel, tells Alexey that he's a hero, he & Petya are real friends, and kisses him. She tells Petya that she's proud that a strong man like him paid attention to her and he'd win if he's serious. She appears to be enticing both of them.
