Tants aurukatla ümber (English: Dance Around the Steam Boiler) is a novel by Estonian author Mats Traat, first published in 1971.

The novel, originally conceived as a film scenario, was adapted into a television movie by director Peeter Simm in 1987 for Eesti Televisioon (ETV).

The cast includes Heino Mandri, Rudolf Allabert, Egert Soll, Arvo Kukumägi, Jüri Järvet, Kärt Kross, Ita Ever, Sulev Luik, Paul Poom, Kaljo Kiisk, Inga-Kai Puskar, Uve Urbla, Liina Tennosaar, Tarvo Hanno Varres, Lennart Mänd, Laine Mägi, and Aire Koop.

This additional chapter illustrates the old age and warmth of the main characters against the backdrop of the industrial and technological developments, and environmental degradation typical of the 1980s.

The film holds a significant place in Estonian historiography and culture, reflecting both the historical context of the Soviet era and the rural experience depicted in the novel.
