DIRECTORS WHO EXPLORE THIS
Hou Hsiao-hsien Taiwan

His films haunt viewers with fragmented memories and absent presences, treating cinema itself as a medium for capturing what lingers between past and present.

 Apichatpong Weerasethakul Thailand

His work explores ghosts as metaphors for trauma, loss, and the supernatural coexistence of past and present, using long takes and elliptical storytelling to evoke spectral presences.
