The Lady with the parrot (Russian: Дама с попугаем, romanized: Dama s popugaem) is a 1988 Soviet romantic comedy directed by Andrei Prachenko.

Imported clothes, a cassette tape recorder, a polaroid camera, stories of how he traveled as a pilot of international flights around the world... all this creates the status of an irresistible man for Sergei, whose charms no "simple Soviet woman" can withstand.

The woman calmly rejects all of Sergei's "patterned" courtship, she reports that she has a son who is an excellent student and a prodigy, and that she is married, but all this only fuels Zverev's interest.

In fact, Sergei works as a simple aircraft technician at the Sheremetyevo-2 airport, and all the foreign accessories he brags to girls at sea are rented: the tape recorder, camera, and even sunglasses!

In turn, Aleksei, deeply pained by the fact that he is brought up by a single mother, tries to present Zverev in school as his father.
