Great piece of work. Script managed to put two religions face to face but no side taken, barely no parciality exhibited IMO, which is a hard to achieve feature on a movie or book. Several interesting details exposed of the amazing, divergent and arguably brutal Japanese ancient culture. A gentle touch in crucial history with multiple mentions to Portugal, Spain and Dutch, thrown into the mix. Great staging by the cast. Even the title Silence that is two-fold reflecting the silence from the villagers and secrecy as well as the silence from God himself.
