Full Plot Details

Intent on investigating the truth behind Father Cristovão Ferreira's abrupt end of correspondence, the devout Portuguese Catholic priests, Sebastião Rodrigues and Francisco Garupe, set off to Japan, in 1633. In great disbelief, as the rumours of Ferreira's apostasy still echo in their minds, the zealous Jesuit missionaries try to locate their mentor, amid the bloodshed of the violent anti-Christian purges. Under those circumstances, the two men and the Japanese guide, Kichijiro, arrive in Japan, only to witness firsthand the unbearable burden of those who have a different belief in a land founded on tradition. Now--as the powerful Grand Inquisitor, Inoue, performs hideous tortures on the brave Japanese Christians--Father Rodrigues will soon have to put his faith to the ultimate test: renounce it in exchange for the prisoners' lives. There, in the ends of the world, a subtle change has begun; however, why is God's silence so deafening?

Movie Reviews

FanboyNation.com - 10/10 by Sean MulvihillMartin Scorsese's latest piece of cinematic brilliance should affect those who believe as much as those who don't.
Film Freak Central - 10/10 by Walter ChawLike the resolution of Ted Chiang's Tower of Babylon, there is no answer in inward faith: there's only the outward expression of grace. Silence is a masterpiece.
KDHX (St. Louis) - 10/10 by Martha K. BakerSilence is a stunning, unforgettable, even timely film about the Martyrs of Japan.
CutPrintFilm - 10/10 by Chris EvangelistaLike a true religious experience, you will be in awe of what you've witnessed.
AwardsCircuit.com - 10/10 by Clayton DavisHistory has remembered "Citizen Kane" and "Vertigo." These were two films not whole heartedly recognized as masterpieces of their time. History now, will remember "Silence," a marvelous and inspiring cinematic experience not to be forgotten.
The Skinny - 10/10 by Philip ConcannonScorsese's long-awaited Shūsaku Endō adaptation is one of the Raging Bull and Goodfellas director's greatest achievements.
Los Angeles Times - 10/10 by Justin ChangBuilding implacable dread and tension from scene to scene, the story is as simple as its underlying ideas are endlessly complex.
Time Out - 10/10 by Joshua RothkopfScorsese has hit the rare heights of Ingmar Bergman and Carl Theodor Dreyer, artists who found in religion a battleground that often left the strongest in tatters, compromised and ruined. It’s a movie desperately needed at a moment when bluster must yield to self-reflection.
The Telegraph - 10/10 by Robbie CollinIt’s a film full of tight close-ups of hands accepting gifts that comfort, inspire and bring succour to their recipients’ souls. That’s how we should receive it.
New York Daily News - 10/10 by Stephen WhittySilence is a slowly unfolding, deeply thoughtful film about questioning yourself. About questioning authority. About taking stock of where you've failed as a human being, and wondering how you can make amends — to yourself, to others, and to God.
