Storia
Sílení follows Jean Berlot, a young man haunted by recurring nightmares of being straitjacketed by orderlies. He meets a Marquis at his estate who introduces him to a world of horror and black magic. After witnessing a black Mass and burying someone alive, Jean is invited to try preventive therapy at a sanatorium. Believing he can rescue a young woman locked there, Jean conspires with her to set the real director and staff free. However, their actions unleash more horrors within the clinic.
Riassunto
Sílení (Silence of the Lambs) is a Czech horror film directed by Jan Svankmajer in 2005. The movie explores themes of insanity, power dynamics, and the dark side of human nature through its blend of animation and live-action. It presents two approaches to managing an asylum - absolute freedom versus control and punishment - within a disturbing world that combines the worst aspects of both. The film is known for its unsettling atmosphere and surreal imagery.
