Both of these show the title character.

Wrong country, but your guess shares one very important thing with this movie.

Not an American film and not a documentary, although it is filmed in a vérité style. This movie won a major award, and the win was controversial because it was seen by some as undeserved.

Off to bed, so if you take a guess, don't expect confirmation until tomorrow.

This is the directors' 11th overall credit.

The winkie-face in the previous post was supposed to indicate there was an extra hint hidden in the sentence. In case you didn't pick up on it, there's more than one director. There are two directors.
This was the lead actress's debut.
These shots should help with country of origin.

This is most perplexing. I'll take a blind stab in the dark..

Nice try with the Taviani brothers. Accordingly, this film was also directed by brothers, but from a different European country. Sterling Ben had the year right with his guess, but I couldn't exactly give it away that early, could I? Here's the main character:

Correct! Won the Palme D'or in 1999. Emily Dequenne won Best Actress. Both well-deserved, in my view.

I was hoping somebody would guess The Son because of the guy in post #658, but no one took the bait.

Almost two months since a post. Is this thread dead and buried now? Pity.

It doesn't have to be. Not that I'm in a position to resurrect it, but I'd play if someone threw up a WC...

I was thinking of this thread yesterday, but forgot to bump it.

I'll have something up shortly.

Probably not the right decade, but I'll ask anyway. Is it The French Connection II?
