The following is an exhaustive list of movies that are considered [by some guy on Mubi] to be part of so-called contemplative cinema (or meditative/slow cinema). It lists every movie, short film or series[1] that was, as of December 31, 2021, featured on any of the following lists:
- Slow Immersion's Contemplative Cinema - A few more additions to the collection
- any of the lists he mentions in the description:
