DIRECTORS WHO EXPLORE THIS
Akira Kurosawa Japan

His films like 'Rashomon' and 'Seven Samurai' repeatedly examine how ordinary people confront their fears and find courage in the face of moral and physical danger.

 Carl Theodor Dreyer Denmark

His austere, intense cinema—particularly 'Vampyr' and 'Ordet'—explores spiritual and psychological courage through characters confronting supernatural and existential terror.
