About a month ago I finished watching perhaps the most pretentious films known to man: Godfrey Reggio's Qatsi Trilogy. They consist of images repeated ad nasuem at different speeds over a very repetitive Phillip Glass score. There is no story, just a "theme" that is "explored" by the "poetry" of repeated images. If you've never seen them, don't. Watch this movie instead. It condenses all the movies into a bite-sized minute and twenty-five seconds. Which, if you have seen the films you know, is all the longer they are actually watchable.
