minimalist directors? i love Bresson and Ozu and Akerman for this. Tarkovsky and Antonioni and Tarr and Angelopolus are great for restraint but they are a bit too dramatic and flashy and drawing attention to their sparseness. looking for very modest and simple filmmaking. pelase don't reccomend me refn

Tsai Ming-liang
Edward Yang
Hou Hsiao-hsien
Mike Leigh
Kelly Reichardt
a lot of Soderbergh's lower-budget work probably qualifies, particularly Bubble, The Girlfriend Experience, and Haywire

I don't know if I would call Kiarostami a minimalist, but it's what comes to mind reading all of those you listed.
Also 2000~ era Haneke has a similar feeling

Benning
Denis
Weerasethakul
Bartas
Costa
Garrel
Reygadas
