DIRECTORS WHO EXPLORE THIS

His documentaries and films obsessively examine humanity's destructive relationship with nature and civilization's fragility against environmental forces.

 Joachim Trier Denmark

His provocative cinema frequently depicts civilizational and environmental catastrophe as expressions of existential despair and cosmic nihilism, most notably in 'Melancholia.'
