DIRECTORS WHO EXPLORE THIS
Alejandro González Iñárritu Mexico

Through immersive cinematography and spatial storytelling, he explores how built environments reflect moral choices and constrain or liberate human agency within their structures.

 Bong Joon-ho South Korea

His films use architectural design as a metaphor for social hierarchy and inequality, critiquing how spaces are ethically designed to segregate and control different classes of people.
