DIRECTORS WHO EXPLORE THIS
Alfred Hitchcock → United Kingdom

Brian De Palma → United States

He examines voyeurism, surveillance technology, and the violation of personal security through elaborate, visually complex thrillers that interrogate the watchers and the watched.

Michael Haneke → Austria

His films directly confront violence, media intrusion, and the false sense of security in domestic and public spaces, challenging viewers' complicity in spectacle and exploitation.
