The Tesseract
In the spirit of "The Matrix" and "Memento," this stylish thriller from Hong Kong filmmaker Oxide Pang Chun ("The Eye") presents a mind-bending tale challenging conventional notions of time and reality. (The film's title refers to a four-dimensional equivalent of a cube.)

The London Critics Circle named Jordan Director of the Year for this stylish cult favorite.
