Sometimes silence is the deadliest sound.
In the 17th century, two Portuguese Jesuit priests travel to Japan in an attempt to locate their mentor, who is rumored to have committed apostasy, and to propagate Catholicism.
Silence is, without a doubt, once best films of 2016, and maybe Martin Scorsese’s masterpiece.
Silence tells the story of two Christian priests (Andrew Garfield and Adam Driver) who face the biggest test of faith when they travel to Japan in search of their lost mentor (Liam Neeson), in a time when Christianity was forbidden.
Rodrigo Prieto, the director of photography, was nominated for the Academy Award for Best Cinematography.
