DIRECTORS WHO EXPLORE THIS
Stanley Kubrick United States

His films like 'Dr. Strangelove' and 'Eyes Wide Shut' explore power dynamics, manipulation, and the performative nature of intimate relationships within political and social hierarchies.

 Ingmar Bergman Sweden

His psychological dramas, particularly 'Scenes from a Marriage,' dissect the dissolution of commitment and the complex negotiations of power between partners trapped in institutional bonds.
