Striped Trip

A monkey slips its cage aboard the Soviet cruise ship Evgeni Onegin and unlocks every other cage in the hold, loosing the tigers and lions meant for a circus. The passengers and crew have nowhere to run, and the captain (Aleksei Gribov) leaves his post in fear while the monkey takes his place. Vladimir Fetin gives the animal tamer Marianna (Margarita Nazarova), the one person aboard who loves them, the job of taking the ship back.
