Repeatedly explored Christ's suffering and spiritual crisis through films like 'The Last Temptation of Christ' and 'Taxi Driver,' examining faith, redemption, and moral questioning.

Crafted 'Passion of Joan of Arc' and 'Ordet' to explore divine sacrifice and spiritual transcendence through intimate, deeply humanistic portrayals of faith.
