I can recommend Gurrumul which I recently saw, admittedly, only during an aeroplane flight, but is memorable.
A doco about the life of blind Aboriginal, naturally gifted Australian singer/songwriter/musician, Geoffrey Gurrumul Yunupingu.
Some other Music/Dance films caught my eye:
Chulas Fronteras - music & culture of the Texas-Mexican border.
If I Leave Here Tomorrow: A Film About Lynyrd Skynyrd
The King - a road trip in Elvis Presley's Rolls Royce
Leto - an exploration set in the 1980s pre-perestroika Leningrad rock scene
Matangi/Maya/M.I.A. - Tamil Sri Lankan musician, M.I.A.
Monterey Pop 1968 - Criterion's 50th anniversary, 4K restoration of the Pennebaker film of the event.
Nico 1988 - The last years and final performances of legendary singer Nico
Ryuichi Sakamoto: Coda - Japanese composer, synth-pop pioneer, electronica experimentalist.
