SOS Eisberg (SOS Iceberg in the U.S.) (1933) is a German-U.S. coproduction, released by Universal Studios in both Germany and the U.S. The film is a dramatic mountain film directed by Arnold Fanck, and filmed in Engadin, Switzerland and in Greenland. The film premiered August 30, 1933 in Berlin. It was filmed simultaneously in English as S.O.S. Iceberg.

Among its stars were Leni Riefenstahl, who had just co-directed The Blue Light (1932), and would go on to direct Nazi-inspired films such as Victory of Faith (1933), Triumph of the Will (1934), and Day of Freedom (1935).
