Mine is Lost Highway. It's one of the most amazing pieces of media I've ever experienced. It's dark, surreal, and I still don't know what it's about for sure. I have my own interpretation, as do many others. Who's right? We'll never know. The film is a fucking trip. I highly recommend.

I'm such a sucker for unreliable narrators so I'm gonna say Memories of Underdevelopment.

It's a Cuban film following a vain, entitled, rich man in the 60s who is disgusted with what he sees as an immature country. Yet spends his life blaming all of his self inflicted personal problems on those he preyed upon.
