Wong Kar-Wai’s films, particularly his 90s Hong Kong vibes of Chungking Express and its spiritual counterpart Fallen Angels.

The question was about "lesser-known movies", but Wong Kar-Wai and his movies are (for obvious reasons) very well-known.

Fantastic! If that's the level for lesser known then you're perfectly right, most of the world's most celebrated, successful and influential filmmakers then certainly count as lesser known.
