DIRECTORS WHO EXPLORE THIS
Luis Buñuel Spain

He ruthlessly exposes how social hierarchies manufacture scapegoats through surrealism and dark comedy, particularly in films like The Exterminating Angel and Viridiana.

 Michael Haneke Austria

His provocative cinema interrogates collective blame and moral complicity, forcing audiences to confront their own scapegoating impulses in films like Funny Games and The Seventh Continent.
