DIRECTORS WHO EXPLORE THIS
Akira Kurosawa Japan

His samurai films like 'Ran' and 'Kagemusha' directly chronicle the collapse of feudal power structures and the decline of the warrior class in medieval Japan.

 Damien Leone Italy

His Spaghetti Westerns deconstruct the myth of frontier society by portraying the violent collapse of old hierarchies and the death of outdated codes of honor.
