Salto Mortale is a 1931 German drama film directed by Ewald André Dupont and starring Anna Sten, Anton Walbrook and Reinhold Bernt. A circus film, it has been described as being "in all but name a sound film remake of Variety" and was a box office success.[1]

The film's sets were designed by the art directors Alfred Junge and Fritz Maurischat. Location filming took place at the Circus Busch in Berlin. A separate French-language version was also made by Dupont.
