~
Das Leben der Anderen (English title: The Lives of Others), in German, written and directed by Florian Henckel von Donnersmarck and starring Ulrich Mühe as Hauptmann Gerd Wiesler, Sebastian Koch as Georg Dreyman, and Martina Gedeck as Christa-Maria Sieland.

IMDb has a good summary of the basic plot:
