This list contains one movie for each official UN member country.
I try to select movies that are deeply entwined with the source country's cultural heritage and have an important meaning for their respective native peoples.
Note: This is a work in progress. I will update this list as I continue to watch movies from all around the world.
If no (*) is added then: Movie's nationality = director's nationality/cultural heritage
Inspired by helderix's list "A movie per country" and Geography Now!.
