Editorial Reviews:
|
Fabria, prosecuted in Iran because of her love affair with another woman, flees to Germany. Her application for asylum is turned down-but her desperate prospects are improved by the suicide of her fellow inmate Siamak. She assumes his identity and, using his temporary permit of sojourn, heads off to a provincial village. At first glance, her survival seems to be assured, but in the refugee hostel, she is obliged to uphold her male disguise in cramped quarters and a single mistake could blow her cover. In order to pay for forged documents, she takes an illegal job in a sauerkraut factory, where she meets Anne, who is very solicitous about Siamak’s well-being and derives some kind of pleasure from the strange foreigner. While spending more and more time together, they become dangerously close and Anne begins to suspect Fariba’s true identity, and Fariba’s fate falls into danger when she is faced with being forced to return to Iran.

Summary: Excellent cross-cultural film with a twist
Comment: Enjoying foreign films of all types, I found this one extremely interesting and rewarding. It starts with the difficulties of refugees in Germany: will they be able to stay or will they be sent back? Fariba is in Germany having fled Iran because of a lesbian affair for which she was imprisoned by the authorities, now awaiting her fate at the hands of German authorities. To stay in Germany she takes the place of a young man who died, gets work illegally in a factory where she meets a woman named Anne, and deals with difficulties posing as a man and working illegally. She is neither triumphant nor defeated through this experience, producing a very realistic feeling in an unusual and absorbing story. I liked it very much.

Summary: pretty decent
Comment: it was touching...
i cut one star becuase it kind of moves along slow, it's emotional and nice, but slow... until the end. that's when it gets really good.

Summary: pretty good
Comment: I think this movie was pretty good. It kind of reminded me of Boys don't cry. Its about a girl who flees Iran, for her love of another woman, and if she returns she is executed. She goes to Germany disguised as a man, and falls in love with a girl. The girl finds out shes a girl and still loves her but the girls ex- husband is upset. I wont tell you more, but the ending kind of leaves you hanging. There is an okay love-making scence. I would reconmend it!
