Sergei Eisenstein → Soviet Union

Pioneer of revolutionary cinema whose works 'October: Ten Days That Shook the World' and 'Battleship Potemkin' profoundly document the immediate aftermath and ideological reconstruction following the 1917 revolution.

Atom Egoyan → Canada/Armenia

His films like 'Ararat' and 'Kominas' engage with post-conflict reconstruction, trauma, and the struggle to rebuild cultural and national identity after revolution and genocide.
