I love World Cinema. Think some of my all time favs are,
3 Iron, just a beautiful movie the main characters don't even speak. Addicted South Korean movie. Love me if you dare, French love story. The glories of my Father (French), Bittersweet life, amazing! Too many to choose. Love me if you dare is often on film four, look out for it.
