To add a more recent film to those on the list, Silence (2016). It deals with Catholic missionaries in Japan during the years of the Shogunate. It asks questions about the moral dilemmas of faith and sacrifice, and is pretty dark, both in theme and cinematography (the colour palette of the movie is very very grey) which isn't something a lot of modern Christian films ask or do.
Some great performances from Andrew Garfield, Liam Neeson and Adam Driver.
