DIRECTORS WHO EXPLORE THIS
Ken Loach United Kingdom

His socially conscious documentaries and dramas such as 'I, Daniel Blake' and 'Kes' unflinchingly portray how financial systems entrap ordinary people in cycles of obligation and poverty.

 Hirokazu Koreeda Japan

His films like 'Shoplifters' and 'Broker' delicately examine how financial desperation and familial obligations drive individuals to morally ambiguous choices.
