DIRECTORS WHO EXPLORE THIS
Werner Herzog Germany

His documentaries obsessively examine humanity's destructive relationship with nature and environmental collapse, from melting glaciers to consuming landscapes.

 Andrey Zvyagintsev Russia

His films present ecological devastation as a metaphor for spiritual and social decay, depicting polluted wastelands and environmental catastrophe as reflections of moral emptiness.

 Tsai Ming-liang Taiwan

His minimalist aesthetic captures urban environmental degradation and the slow erosion of natural spaces through water imagery and decaying architectural landscapes.
