The 2016 film, Silence, was co-produced by the United States, Japan, and Mexico, and directed by Martin Scorsese. The leading actors included Andrew Garfield, Adam Driver, Liam Neeson, and many others. The film was adapted from the novel of the same name published by Endo Shusaku in 1966. The story took place in a small village near Nagasaki during the Tokugawa shogunate's ban on religion. The background was that in the middle of the 16th century, the Roman church entered Japan, but the Edo shogunate closed the country and implemented the "separation of commerce and religion" to prohibit Buddhism, and used many cruel punishments to suppress the believers. The film began with the narration of the last letter of Father Ferreira, who had come to Japan to preach for many years. In 1633, four Roman priests suffered hellish torture. In order to save the innocent believers in Japan, Father Ferreira chose to abandon his faith in the form of betrayal by stepping on the holy image. In the film, the Portugal Jesus priest sneaked into Japan to preach and investigate the fact that his mentor was forced to abandon his religion due to the torture of "hanging in the cave". The protagonist faced the dilemma of faith and rebellion, holiness and betrayal, power and inferiority, suffering and fear, firmness and forbearance, struggle and detachment in the process of preaching and searching, so as to carry out a deeper and more realistic reflection on the faith of Jesus. The film was selected as one of the 2016 American Film Institute's Top Ten Movies. " The Silent Eyewitness " novel is equally exciting. Everyone is welcome to click and read it!
