Zwischen Nacht und Morgen (During Night and Morning) was based on Dirnentragodie, a play by Wilhelm Braun. Aud Egede Nissen plays an aging prostitute who falls in love with a young, wealthy scapegrace. Soon her new swain leaves her in favor of a younger tart, compelling Nissen to murder her rival. Whether or not this will have any redemptive effect on the young man is left to conjecture; it is certain, however, that Nissen will pay for her crime. The film is a remake of a 1925 silent picture which starred Asta Nielsen and was directed by Bruno Rahn.
