If only five, I would spread it over five countries.Say, Italy... France... Germany... Sweden... Russia. I could have included Spain or any of many other countries as opposed to Russia, but putting a Russian film on the list would provide wider diversity, I think.
In that case:
Bicycle Thief
Grand Illusion
Tin Drum
The Seventh Seal
Andrey Rublev
For sure this list will give them PLENTY to discuss.
This is just a quick stab, making those short lists is a chore... you feel like changing it every five seconds.
