DIRECTORS WHO EXPLORE THIS
Alfred Hitchcock United Kingdom

His masterpiece 'Vertigo' is an obsessive psychological exploration of acrophobia and the fear of heights as both physical and emotional vertigo.

 Jacques Tati France

His films like 'Mon Oncle' use architectural verticals and elevated perspectives with darkly comedic dread, making physical space itself a source of humorous yet genuine unease.
