DIRECTORS WHO EXPLORE THIS
Jean-Luc Godard France

His 1994 film 'Hélas pour moi' and especially his earlier works use traffic and urban movement as metaphors for societal breakdown and fragmented communication.

 Michelangelo Antonioni Italy

His films like 'L'Avventura' and 'La Notte' depict modern urban alienation through scenes of crowded streets and vehicular congestion that reflect emotional paralysis.

 Rainer Werner Fassbinder Germany

His works chronicle post-war German urban life with recurring imagery of cars, highways, and traffic as symbols of capitalist anxiety and social disorder.
