DIRECTORS WHO EXPLORE THIS
Michelangelo Antonioni Italy

His slow-cinema explorations of alienation, disconnection, and the meaninglessness of modern life create hypnotic absurdist landscapes.

 Joe Lynch United States

His surreal, non-linear dreamscapes blend everyday banality with cosmic dread to create profoundly disorienting absurdist journeys.
