DIRECTORS WHO EXPLORE THIS
Michelangelo Antonioni Italy

His films obsessively explore mirrors, windows, and reflective surfaces as metaphors for alienation and the impossibility of truly knowing oneself or others.

 Andrei Tarkovsky Soviet Union

He uses water, glass, and reflections as spiritual and philosophical devices to examine memory, consciousness, and the nature of reality itself.

 Joachim Trier Denmark

His work frequently employs mirrors and reflections to interrogate identity, trauma, and the relationship between appearance and inner psychological truth.
