Please join the Stanford Catholic Film Group to discuss Silence (2016). Directed by Martin Scorsese, the film stars Andrew Garfield, Adam Driver, Tadanobu Asano, Ciarán Hinds and Liam Neeson. The plot follows two 17th-century Jesuit priests who travel from Portugal to Edo period Japan to locate their missing mentor and spread Catholic Christianity. It is the third of Scorsese’s films about religious figures struggling with challenges of faith. It was selected as one of the top ten films of the year by both the National Board of Review and the American Film Institute.
It’s available very widely. Click here to find out how to watch.
We’ll be meeting at 7:30 on Zoom. A Zoom link will be sent the day before, so if you’re not on the email list currently, send a message stating “I’m Interested” to StanfordYRCFilm@gmail.com.
Everyone is invited!
