Here are a few suggestions:

Marlon Riggs “Black Is. . . Black Ain't

The films of Alan Berliner draw upon autobiography about his Jewish
background. His “Nobody’s Business” is about his father. The website has
clips from his films: http://www.alanberliner.com/abt/index.html

Trinh T. Minh-ha “Surname Viet Given Name Nam” on Vietnamese female identity
in the US and Vietnam

Jonas Mekas has shot autobiographical films as a Lithuanian expatriate

Hope this helps,

Robert Goff
