Wong Kar-Wai’s films, particularly his 90s Hong Kong vibes of Chungking Express and its spiritual counterpart Fallen Angels.
The question was about "lesser-known movies", but Wong Kar-Wai and his movies are (for obvious reasons) very well-known.
I saw Snowpiercer on another comment so I assumed we were scraping the surface lol
Fantastic! If that's the level for lesser known then you're perfectly right, most of the world's most celebrated, successful and influential filmmakers then certainly count as lesser known.
