Spring on Ice (German: Frühling auf dem Eis) is a 1951 Austrian musical comedy film directed by Georg Jacoby and starring Eva Pawlik, Herta Mayen and Hans Holt.[1] It is set around the Vienna Ice Revue. The film was shot using Agfacolor at the Soviet-controlled Rosenhügel Studios in Vienna. The film's sets were designed by the art director Julius von Borsody.

Synopsis

Herbert Gordon, the director of an ice revue, dismisses skater Eva as she is overshadowing his wife Alida. A radio reporter who loves Eva does his best to help her, but it is only when there is a general strike by other performers that she is given her chance to shine.
