I forgot Foreign Film. To preserve the integrity of my original list, I am adding a new reply rather than editing it.

I'll go with Un Prophete from France. Runner Up: El Secreto de Sus Ojos from Argentina.

A little over ten days to go and only three submissions. Please don't all wait until the last minute.

In the event of a tie, the earlier entry will be declared the tie-breaker.
