DIRECTORS WHO EXPLORE THIS
Werner Herzog Germany

His films blur the line between documentary and fiction, constructing grand mythologies from dubious historical accounts and personal obsessions.

 David Lynch USA

Creates dreamlike narratives where tall tales, urban legends, and surreal storytelling become indistinguishable from psychological reality.
