What are the best foreign (non-UK or hollywood) films you've seen?

We in Britain get so many American films, but so little from Europe and the rest of the world.

Bande A Part. It's French. It's old. And it's amazing.

Anything by Miyazaki is usually good. I like I Am A Cyborg by Chan-Wook Park, and Amelie by Jean-Pierre Jeunet.
Also, Pans Labyrinth and the Orphanage by Guillermo Del Toro!
