What are the best European TV shows and movies? (lemmy.world)

I feel like most talked-about shows and movies are American, what are some good European ones?

I have too many people into arthouse around, but especially when it comes to movies I have long been watching more European than American stuff.

Ruben Östlund makes both movies that are fun and deep (e.g. "Triangle of Sadness", "The Square").

I love Kusturica's movies. A touch of magical realism and humour from the Balkans. His political views are... let's just say you do not have to agree much with the views of an artist to enjoy his work ;)

"Do Not Expect Too Much from the End of the World" is a great recent comedy from the Romanian Radu Jude.

"Blue Is the Warmest Colour" is a beautiful lesbian love story.

Petro Almodovar has made incredible melodramas.

I can also very much recommend "Cold War" by Paweł Pawlikowski (another love story, but this time with a very sensitible perspective on Central European history in the background).

Lukas Dhont makes very touching movies, I have rarely cried as much on a movie as on his "Close".

Blue is the warmest colour has so many lesbian sex scenes that it became a meme for that
