DIRECTORS WHO EXPLORE THIS
Agnès Varda France

Her films like 'The Gleaners and I' blur documentary and performance, capturing both real life and the performative nature of existence itself.

 Michael Haneke Austria

His films obsessively document the performance of everyday life and violence, interrogating how cinema itself documents and constructs meaning from human behavior.
