One Liter of Tears fits the bill.
It portrays the life of a real girl named Aya Kitou who develops a neuromuscular disease as a teen. It's an old film but great for making you think about the value and beauty of life.
There is a JDrama with the same name. The show takes some artistic liberties with the real story but since it has a longer run time it goes more in depth about the family dynamics and explores other plot lines.
Chariots of fire.

Armageddon
Troop Zero pulled my heart strings. About a little girl scout obsessed with space that is coping with the death of her mother. It's done in a very uplifting manner, and you're more likely to cry from the beauty of how the character handles it.
Adam's Apples
Columbus and After Yang by Kogonada. These are such beautiful, contemplative films.
Apollo 11 was quite nicely made.
It's basically a documentary made using remastered original footage along with beautiful soundscape.
Tout le bleu du ciel - 2025 Netflix french movie. The whole roadtrip thing made me watch it and I enjoyed it. Might be what you're looking for as well.
And speaking of road trips, Into the Wild. Amazing movie, amazing soundtrack by Pearl Jam's Eddie Vedder.
Both movies quite sad and beautiful.
Mr Nobody
