A mother and daughter flee to a strange abandoned town to seek out answers to the daughter's nightly psychological turmoil in
Brotherhood of the Wolf director
Christophe Gans' adaptation of the popular survival
horror video game.
Sharon (
Jodelle Ferland) is a very sick child, yet rather than seeing her child suffer the cruel indignities of the medical profession,
Rose (
Radha Mitchell) ignores her husband's (
Sean Bean) pleas and absconds with her ailing daughter to the fog-enshrouded town of Silent Hill. A town drenched in darkness and inhabited by a strange collection of menacing specters, Silent Hill seemingly swallows young
Sharon whole upon arrival. Determined to get her daughter back at any cost,
Rose sets out to explore the mysterious Silent Hill, only to discover an evil so powerful that it possesses the ability to transform anything it wishes. With the deeply disturbing history of the town slowly coming into focus through the dense fog,
Rose soon realizes that both she and her daughter may be little more than simple pawns in a much larger, and seemingly supernatural, game.
