DIRECTORS WHO EXPLORE THIS
Bong Joon-ho South Korea

His films use vehicles and transit systems as central metaphors for social hierarchy and class division, most notably in Snowpiercer and Parasite.

 Wong Kar-wai Hong Kong

He transforms taxis, trains, and urban mobility into poetic spaces for human connection and melancholic romance in films like Fallen Angels and In the Mood for Love.

 David Lean United Kingdom

His epic films center on journeys and transportation—trains, ships, and desert crossings—as transformative odysseys that define human destiny and ambition.
