Code 46 (DVD)

Sci-fi romance directed by Michael Winterbottom. In a Brave New World-style dystopian near future, family man William (Tim Robbins) is a government investigator sent to get to the bottom of a counterfeiting ring which is producing fake 'papelles' - the compulsory travel permits issued to the elite by the totalitarian government. Through his investigations he meets a mysterious young woman, Maria (Samantha Morton), with whom he falls passionately in love - despite the fact that he knows she is behind the forgeries. When William takes actions to cover up her crime, he finds himself becoming increasingly embroiled in the political controversy surrounding the case.
