THE LOVE AGENCY

In an age when even the KGB returns to typing machines there’s even less cause to rely on the Internet in matters of love. At a marriage agency in Arkhangelsk, not far from the Arctic Circle, things are still organised on an analogue basis, with a folder of pictures. Men and women come here with the same dream: to find love. Owner Svetlana boldly brings together what didn’t come together in life. What happens next, though, can end either way. Everything is always a little too much, too sweet, too greasy. Is it fake? But who knows what real love is?
