Please help remember the movie title?

I think it was from 1998-2001.

It was about a male dancer (I think tap dancer). I remember him falling in love with a young woman who he gave private lessons (not sure about lessons), it was during WWII. Don't remember exactly how but he got captured and was in Siberia labour camp. He came back after a lot of years to find the woman he loved and he knocked on the door and a young woman (played by the same actress who played his love) opened the door and he found out it was his daughter. They also show how his love was killed (she was working in a store and was stabbed by some guy).

Don't remember much but I hope somebody knows the title.

Thanks.

Update:

There was also a powerful scene when he barricaded himself in a room and was dancing.

Update 2:

No, not White Nights. The movie is from around 1998-2001.
