You can't go wrong with City of God.
And just to mention some that haven't already been mentioned ....
If you liked Crouching Tiger Hidden Dragon, check out the recent Chinese marital arts movie "Hero". For something off-beat ... Talk to Her by P. Almodovar. Other recent Spanish films - Nine Queens, about pair of con artists, or The Crime of Padre Amaro. For something in German, try Nowhere in Africa, 2002 Oscar winner for best foreign language film.
