A Little Favor

A Little Favor (Romanian: Mică favoare; Russian: Маленькое одолжение) is a Soviet television musical drama, shot in 1984 by director Boris Konunov according to the script by Victoria Tokareva (based on her story).

Plot
The hero of Nikolai Karachentsov, a very popular pop singer Valentin Ozernikov (in the year the film was released, a parallel was suggested with Yuri Antonov, including because of the proximity of the external type), before going on tour, he receives an unexpected request from a stranger to transfer the thing to his wife. A small favor causes the singer great difficulties: the arrival of the train does not bring the wife of the unknown person for the package, the singer knows only her name and surname. The search for the addressee - Galina Mitrofanova - turns into a series of spectacular episodes built psychologically precisely. In the end, Ozernikov manages to find that woman; along the way, it turns out that her husband left her. Another drama reminded the singer of his own: once he also left his wife and son in pursuit of fame. The hard recognition is compassionate: Galina Mitrofanova advises him to come to his hometown and obey his loved ones - if only for the purification of her own soul. And the singer, returning to Moscow, understands that this is exactly what he will do...
