Silence

About This Movie

So, 'Silence' is this intriguing little thriller from 2017 that plays with the tension of isolation and trust. It centers on Boris and Anja, who, despite just having met, retreat to his mountain cottage, which already sets a haunting tone. The atmosphere is thick, almost claustrophobic, as their brief acquaintance unfolds. There’s this underlying sense of dread as Anja learns about Boris's passion for hunting—it's not just about the sport, it's about something darker. The pacing is deliberately slow, almost methodical, which draws you deeper into their psychological interplay. The performances are subtle yet compelling, adding layers to their characters. It’s not flashy, but it’s that understated quality that lingers long after the credits roll.
