* = meets your criteria for me

The 2000 cut-off seems arbitrary, as it ignores people who just started a few years earlier but have produced their best stuff in the 21st century: Paul Thomas Anderson, Spike Jonze, Noah Baumbach, Kim Ki-Duk, Kim Ji-Woon, Wes Anderson, Nicholas Winding Refn, Lynne Ramsay, the Dardennes, Kelly Reichardt, Jafar Panahi, off the top of my head.

If I had to put money down on which will have the most relevance in the future, I'd go Weerasethakul, Kaufman, Perry.
