faith-based films
Christian movie genre
Faith-based films are movies with explicitly religious themes, usually Christian, designed to affirm and promote spiritual beliefs.
The genre emerged as a distinct category in American cinema in the early 2000s, targeting churchgoing audiences with stories of conversion, miracles, or moral redemption.
Production values range from modest independent efforts to major studio releases.
