DIRECTORS WHO EXPLORE THIS
Joachim Trier → Denmark

His Dogme 95 movement deliberately embraced low-resolution digital video and handheld cameras to create raw, intimate aesthetic experiences that rejected cinematic artifice.

Apichatpong Weerasethakul → Thailand

He frequently employs low-resolution video, long takes, and deliberately degraded image quality to create meditative works that challenge conventional cinematic clarity and narrative structure.
