Wikipedia article
'Dance on the Volcano' is a 1920 German silent film directed by Richard Eichberg and featuring Bela Lugosi, Violetta Napierska and Lee Parry. The film is about a French aristocrat who falls in love with a Russian nightclub singer, and his attraction to her involves him in a Russian revolutionary movement.
The film was made originally in two parts, each running 5 reels, entitled 'Sybil Young' and 'Der Tod des Grofrsten'. It was later re-edited into a shortened 6-reel version for English-language audiences, retitled 'Daughter of the Night'. This film was considered lost until an archive print of the shortened release version was discovered in the 1990s. The film was later released on Region 0 DVD by Alpha Video on 28 October 2008. The original, full-length film apparently no longer exists.
