Tamer of Tigers (released in English as Tiger Girl, Russian: Укротительница тигров, romanized: Ukrotitelnitsa tigrov) is a 1955 Soviet-era comedy film released by Lenfilm, directed by Nadezhda Kosheverova and Aleksandr Ivanovsky.
Having fallen in love with the circus, for the incredible atmosphere that reigns in the arena and behind the scenes, she dreams of becoming a tamer.
The director invites motorcycle racer Fyodor Ermolaev to display an incredibly spectacular show number, right under the circus cupola.
Overcoming her fear, she starts to work, and tigers submit to her strong character and obey her.
Ermolaev rents a room with an accountant, his daughter Olga dances in a circus corps de ballet, and her parents want to marry her to an artist.
