DIRECTORS WHO EXPLORE THIS
Werner Herzog Germany

His documentaries obsessively explore Earth's geological extremes and ancient landscapes, from volcanoes to caves, revealing how geology shapes human existence and meaning.

 Michelangelo Antonioni Italy

His films present landscapes and architectural spaces as geological presences that dwarf human characters, making stone, earth, and terrain central to exploring existential alienation.
