Between Yesterday and Tomorrow (German: Zwischen gestern und morgen) is a 1947 German drama film directed by Harald Braun and starring Hildegard Knef, Winnie Markus and Sybille Schmitz. It was part of both the cycle of rubble films and subgenre of hotel films. As with many other German rubble films, it examines issues of collective guilt and future rebuilding.

It was shot at the Bavaria Studios in Munich. The film's sets were designed by the art director Robert Herlth.

Plot

In post-war Germany a group of former guests return to a luxurious Munich hotel where they are haunted by memories of their past interaction with Nelly Dreifuss, a Jewish woman who died during the Nazi era.
