'Wedding in Malinovka' (, 'Svadba v Malinovke') is a 1967 Soviet musical comedy film directed by Andrei Tutyshkin based on an operetta by Boris Aleksandrov adapted by Leonid Yukhvid.[https://books.google.fr/books?id=Jp7ayTLX1D8C&pg=PA639&lpg=PA639&dq=Svadba+v+Malinovke&source=bl&ots=dLT9L7oHMd&sig=UJi8P-0_x-j7-9LqZwmezZT5BFA&hl=fr&sa=X&ved=2ahUKEwjZ7rrM47HfAhVRzIUKHbZrA2A4FBDoATAHegQIAhAB#v=onepage&q=Svadba%20v%20Malinovke&f=false Derek Elley, World Filmography: 1967] Fairleigh Dickinson University Press, 1977, , 639 pp.[https://books.google.fr/books?id=tZHCAQAAQBAJ&pg=PA440&lpg=PA440&dq=Svadba+v+Malinovke&source=bl&ots=1HWBjEe1Ae&sig=ZVI72sY1Ad5dZIfHqmGTmBFmuDA&hl=fr&sa=X&ved=2ahUKEwjd4oHx5bHfAhURxYUKHSwbBow4HhDoATAHegQIAhAB#v=onepage&q=Svadba%20v%20Malinovke&f=false Tatiana Smorodinskaya, Encyclopaedia of Contemporary Russian] Routledge, 2013, , 440 p.

The film is about a Ukrainian village during the time of the Russian Civil War. With power alternating almost daily between Soviet and Ukrainian nationalist forces, the villagers of Malinovka are never sure who is in charge, so they modify their behaviour and dress accordingly.

One of the film's main characters, Nazar Duma, has a completely unrelated namesake in a different famous Soviet film, 'Tractor Drivers' (1939). This coincidence was used in a crossover parody film, 'Tractor Drivers 2'.
