The Mountains Between Us (German: Zwischen uns die Berge) is a 1956 Swiss romantic drama film directed by Franz Schnyder and starring Hannes Schmidhauser, Nelly Borgeaud and Peter Arens.[1] Made in Eastmancolor, it was part of the post-war boom in heimatfilm which reached its peak around this period. However the film was a commercial failure and received a poor critical reception.

It was shot at the Rosenhof Studios in Zürich and on location around Riederalp and Kippel in Valais and in the Italian capital Rome. The film's sets were designed by the art director Max Röthlisberger.
