A second vote for "Tous Les Matins du Monde" (Jordi Savall can do no wrong). "The Commitments" was great. Numerous concert films would fall into "non-fiction" but I'm guessing that was not the OP's intended target. Marginally in that realm I'd mention "Leonard Cohen: I'm Your Man" which is a combination documentary concert film.
