DIRECTORS WHO EXPLORE THIS
Rainer Werner Fassbinder Germany

His works critically deconstruct fascism's psychological roots and appeal through character studies, exploring how propaganda operates on desire and fear in post-war society.

 Pier Paolo Pasolini Italy

His final film 'Salò' uses fascist aesthetics and violence as a lens to critique totalitarianism and propaganda's dehumanizing effects with unflinching intensity.
