DIRECTORS WHO EXPLORE THIS
Rainer Werner Fassbinder Germany

Works such as 'Lola' directly examine the intersection of sex work, corruption, and political intrigue in post-war environments with unflinching psychological depth.

 Luis Buñuel Spain

His surrealist films like 'The Discrete Charm of the Bourgeoisie' and 'Viridiana' probe social hypocrisy, desire, and the hidden intrigues of power beneath respectable facades.
