Michelangelo Antonioni Italy

His films like 'L'Avventura' and 'La Notte' capture the ennui and spiritual emptiness of leisure-filled lives among the affluent.

 Yasujirō Ozu Japan

His contemplative films such as 'Tokyo Story' and 'An Autumn Afternoon' find profound meaning in quiet domestic moments and the passage of unhurried time.

 Chloé Zhao China/USA

Her films like 'The Rider' and 'Nomadland' explore how individuals navigate existence and find purpose in spaces of wandering, stillness, and displacement.
