Solovey iz sela Marshyntsi (Ukrainian: Соловейко із села Маршинці, Соловейко з Буковини) is a 1966 short film. It was the first studio filmed movie starring Sofia Rotaru.

Rotaru was 19 when she starred in the film as a performer of Ukrainian and Moldavian folk songs. The setting is the premises of the Chernivsti Philharmonic Society. The name of the film was ultimately adopted as Rotaru's nickname in Soviet Union media reports of her career in the 1970s.

The singer appears in the titles with her Ukrainified (first version) last name - Rotar' (Rotaru in Moldavian).
