Run Lola Run

As I'm starting to explore more of the experimental cinema out there, I have to say that this is one of the greatest movies I've seen. It explores just about every theme I love to see in a film. It uses both modernism, as we see the characters each in their individualistic way, and post-modernism, with the questioning of what is real and what's not. The mixed media, the momentum always pushing the main characters to both physically run and mentally overcome their biggest insecurities — it's brilliant. Manni has to overcome his trust issues, as we see when he gives the gun to the homeless man, and Lola has to forgive her father. The metaphysical and philosophical layers this movie has, from the opening scene all the way to the end, are just perfectly written and executed. Top 4 film for me.
