DIRECTORS WHO EXPLORE THIS
François Truffaut France

While focusing on personal narratives, Truffaut's work emerged from French New Wave's critique of institutional power and state control, reflecting the political anxieties of post-war France.

 Jean-Luc Godard France

Godard's revolutionary filmmaking style and explicit political engagement in works like 'Tout va bien' make him a central figure in exploring ideology, class struggle, and French political consciousness.
