Martin Scorsese directed this historical drama set in the late seventeenth century starring Liam Neeson, Andrew Garfield and Adam Driver. A story about the inherent mission of every religious belief and the difficulties surrounding this duty that may affect a man of God to the point of completely renounce his faith. The film chronicles the misadventures of a missionary who has abandoned his belief as a result of the persecution and torture he suffered in Japan, country to which two young Jesuits travel with the intention of finding the unlucky one. These men of faith will then live in their own flesh the violence with which the Japanese receive Christians in their country. The film is based on Shusaku Endo book called Silence.
