DIRECTORS WHO EXPLORE THIS
Bong Joon-ho South Korea

His films obsessively explore hierarchical power dynamics and class conflict through symbolic animal metaphors and literal animal presence.

 Werner Herzog Germany

He consistently examines human-animal relationships and primal survival instincts, treating animal behavior as a mirror to human nature.

 Yorgos Lanthimos Greece

His surreal cinema frequently depicts competing desires, dominance games, and hierarchical power struggles with absurdist animal-like physicality.
