Good flick we just checked out (was made in 05 though).
The English name is Unveiled, but the original name Fremde Haut is way cooler sounding, let's face it.
Main character Fariba Tabrizi seeks asylum in Germany to avoided being persecuted in Iran for a lesbian relationship. After numerous failed attempts Fariba takes on the identity of a dead man to get in and that's how the story unfolds.
I just fell in love with Germany, so I might be a little biased on saying this film is good, but I think it holds it's own in the drama category. Jasmin Tabatabai (who plays Fariba) does an outstanding job and it's shot with such detail, any filmmaker could appreciate it for that if the story can lag in parts.
