DIRECTORS WHO EXPLORE THIS
Michelangelo Antonioni Italy

His films use cars and urban movement as metaphors for modern alienation and disconnection, with vehicles symbolizing the emotional distance between characters.

 Abbas Kiarostami Iran

He repeatedly used cars as mobile spaces for intimate dialogue and philosophical exploration, most notably in 'Ten' where the automobile becomes a confessional booth.

 David Lynch United States

His films treat roads, cars, and travel as gateways to mystery and the uncanny, with transportation symbolizing journeys into psychological darkness and the American underbelly.
