Origine contrôlée (US title: Made in France) is a 2001 French comedy-drama film starring Ronit Elkabetz.
It is also the debut French-language picture to star Elkabetz, famous for Hebrew-language roles in her native Israel.
During his overnight stay in jail he meets two strangers, a beur, Youssef (Kelif) and Sophia (Elkabetz), a woman seeking a sex-change operation.
The eclectic trio embark on a hedonistic tour through Paris and the surrounding countryside, amidst the frivolities, and problems such as the immigration authorities and the police presence.
[2][3] Elkabetz was cast in the starring role after directors Bouchaala and Tahri attended the closing night of her one-woman show in Paris playing Martha Graham.
