DIRECTORS WHO EXPLORE THIS
Ingmar Bergman Sweden

His films like 'Scenes from a Marriage' dissect the psychological tensions and power dynamics between spouses, exploring how intimacy and individuality collide within matrimony.

 Jean-Luc Godard France

He consistently interrogates marriage as a social construct that constrains personal freedom, particularly through the lens of female autonomy in films like 'A Woman is a Woman'.
