DIRECTORS WHO EXPLORE THIS
Federico Fellini Italy

His films like 'La Dolce Vita' and '8½' obsessively explore the blurred boundaries between performance, artifice, and authentic human existence within theatrical and cinematic worlds.

 Rainer Werner Fassbinder Germany

His prolific work interrogates performance, artificiality, and emotional authenticity through highly stylized, theatrically-influenced mise-en-scène that examines how we perform identity in society.
