atom egoyan films !!!
peter watkin's "journey" !!!
chris marker!!! not just "sans soleil", "level 5", ...
maybe wim wenders: alice in the cities. tokio-ga.
werner herzog: fitzcarraldo,
very new and interesting: "chain" by jem cohen, a worldwide project.
also "megacities" by michael glawogger (also "workingman's death")
or hubert sauper's "elsewhere".
which brings me to godard's "ici et ailleurs" - well, that's not your
topic...
the only early film i can think of: nanook.
all i can contribute right now...
