I really liked "The Motorcycle Diaries," which is about Che Guevara's road trip through South America in his youth.
One that my Spanish class just watched was "La Historia Oficial" which is about the mothers of children lost in Argentina's Dirty War. To tell you the truth, it wouldn't have been my first choice for a movie to watch for fun, but it turned out to be pretty good. People in class have found that one on Netflix using the English name (The Official Story). I got The Motorcycle Diaries from a friend, but I'm sure you can find it at a library or floating around online somewhere.
