DIRECTORS WHO EXPLORE THIS
Béla Tarr Hungary

His pessimistic, long-form narratives in films like 'Sátántangó' and 'Werkmeister Harmonies' deeply explore humanity's relationship with decay, control, and the collective as a herd.

 Michael Haneke Austria

His provocative cinema in films like 'Funny Games' and 'The Seventh Continent' examines societal control systems, breeding grounds of violence, and the dehumanization of existence.
