DIRECTORS WHO EXPLORE THIS
David Cronenberg Canada

His body horror films like 'Videodrome' and 'The Fly' deconstruct bodily autonomy and transformation as manifestations of societal control and technological anxiety.

 Claire Denis France

Her work consistently examines corporeality, desire, and the politics of physical presence, especially in 'Trouble Every Day' and 'High Life,' challenging conventional representations of bodies.
