I have the opportunity to screen movies to a somewhat sizeable audience quite regularly, and I need some recommendations, because my knowledge only extends so much. The audience will go from somewhat politically engaged to extremely radicalized, knowledgeable people (as much politically as with movies).

Be it an experimental documentary which subverts a whole political question, an astute analysis of a geopolitical situation, an emotionally devastating (or potentially hopeful) fiction, or just a very sensible poetic essay in the Chris Marker style or documentary like Paris is Burning, I need it all.

Preferably not something mainstream as that kind would already be widely available to watch for most and the goal is to widen the audience of lesser known movies that need to be shown just as much. Like really very obscure stuff preferably.

Thank you comrades.
