I guess Primer (2004) would be the... prime example. There's a whole bunch of time travel/alternate timelines craziness in this one. It's one of those films you'll have to watch a couple times to figure it all out.

Thanks! This is exactly what I'm looking for, films that require time and effort to completely understand. It's also in the same vein as the films I mentioned above.

Predestination is another time travel film with no linear narrative. It's based on Robert Heinlein's "All You Zombies." Instead of watching it again I read its wiki to clear a couple things up. I already read the story but didn't catch onto one early scene.

Spoilers/no spoilers: The film has one character.
