DIRECTORS WHO EXPLORE THIS
Andrei Tarkovsky Soviet Union

His films like 'Ivan's Childhood' and 'Mirror' explore the psychological and spiritual trauma of war, particularly through memory and its fragmentation across personal and historical timescales.

 Béla Tarr Hungary

His bleak, languorous works like 'Sátántangó' and 'Damnation' depict post-war Eastern European societies consumed by nihilism, decay, and the impossibility of redemption.
