2001: A Space Odyssey (1968)

The slow rhythm of this film is very stylistic. Gravity 0 slows down everything but the sense of emergency is not decreased at all. From the apes are enlighted to learn how to kill for food and resources, to the computer's desire to survive, this odyssey invites us to think about what life is for. Monolith seems to play a role eternality, watching all the happenings. I'm very surprised to find the year of the movie, 1968. It's definitely still relevant.
