DIRECTORS WHO EXPLORE THIS

His films explore the breakdown of communication and human connection in modern society through extended silences and visual language over dialogue.

 Ingmar Bergman Sweden

He deeply examines the failure of language to express inner emotional truths and the isolation that results from miscommunication between characters.
