DIRECTORS WHO EXPLORE THIS
Atom Egoyan Canada

His films explore displacement, memory, and the search for belonging through fragmented narratives that question what 'home' means across cultures and generations.

 Andrei Tarkovsky Soviet Union/Russia

His meditative works examine spiritual exile, loss of homeland, and humanity's yearning for transcendence and return through deeply philosophical visual poetry.
