Which are your favorite non-English movies, series etc?
If not favorite, ones that touched you in some way.
I'll start by mentioning some movies from my mother tongue(Malayalam of Kerala, India):
- Mumbai Police
A crime thriller (Came out almost 2 decades ago n was very striking for the time) - KammaraSambhavam
Political/Historic satire/drama (The main actor has some cases on him, but the movie is quite good) - Kathavasheshan
- Devasuram
Conservative sigma male upper class Kerala dude getting character development. I really liked how the transformation happened in it - Maheshinte Parthikaaram (Mahesh's Revenge)
Not an action movie.
From my country, but not in my mother tongue:
- Super Deluxe - A Tamil movie that I recently watched, quite unique
- Enthiran (Robot), a Tamil movie
Has over the top stuff, but is fun to watch - Viduthalai(Liberation), another Tamil movie
- Agent Vinod - A Hindi spy-comedy movie
The anime that I like are Hunter x Hunter, Parasyte, Samurai Flamenco, Gintama.

cat city
What a weird and wonderful movie. Fantastic pick
dont watch the sequel (i havent either).
but yeah, it's a james bond type story set in a super weird garbled mirror image of the cold war. with mice and cats. and bats. and rats.
man i'm gonna re-watch it tonight. got myself hyped up :D
What I found especially interesting was how the movie showed a cycle of violence.
The main cat is being threatened by the boss cat to the point of needing to take anxiety medication.
The main cat then relentlessly bullies and injures his assistant.
His assistant then bullies the person lower on the social ladder than him... Aka his daughter...
His daughter then breaks the chain by not bullying the mouse who in turn doesn't bully anyone.
At the end of the movie when it's all ended and the assistant is no longer being actively harmed by his superior, we see him as a loving father again.
