One of the best foreign films I've ever seen was Iranian: Darius Mehrjui's Hamoun.

The protagonist was a failed writer, in a depressed post-war Tehran, going through a messy divorce. Very existential.

These are a few scenes from the movie - although the score was an arrangement of the Adagio from Bach's Violin Concerto in E.

Enjoy.
