Russian Ark. The entire movie is one continuous shot, filmed in the Winter Palace in St. Petersburg. It took one day to film the whole movie, but it took 3 years to plan out the shot.
If you like one shot films, watch Victoria. It's set and shot in Berlin and begins at night, but the sun starts to rise during the film, giving it a unique quality.
The director allowed three attempts to get the shot before enacting a backup plan to shoot it traditionally and the actors got it on the third attempt!
