DIRECTORS WHO EXPLORE THIS
Ken Loach United Kingdom

His films unflinchingly document the struggles of working-class individuals against systemic inequality and economic hardship.

 Bong Joon-ho South Korea

He masterfully uses genre and visual metaphor to expose the absurdity and violence inherent in class hierarchies and social stratification.

 Pier Paolo Pasolini Italy

His provocative films interrogate class division through the lens of sexuality, consumption, and the corruption of both bourgeois and lumpenproletariat culture.
