The Story of a Little Parisian (French: Totte et sa chance, German: Der Sprung ins Glück, Italian: La storia di una piccola Parigina) is a 1928 silent film directed by Augusto Genina. It was made as a co-production between France, Germany and Italy. The film was created in conjunction with Maurice Yvain's operetta Yes; a stage work which shares the same story as the film and which starred French singer and actress Arletty as Totte. Both works simultaneously premiered in Paris on January 26, 1928.

The film's art direction was by Otto Erdmann and Hans Sohnle.
