SILENT HILL
SYNOPSIS
The eerie and deserted ghost town of Silent Hill
draws a young mother desperate to find a cure for
her only child's illness. Unable to accept the
doctor's diagnosis that her daughter should be
permanently institutionalized for psychiatric care,
Rose (Radha Mitchell) flees with her child, heading
for the abandoned town in search of answers --
and ignoring the protests of her husband (Sean
Bean). It's soon clear this place is unlike anywhere
she's ever been. It's smothered by fog, inhabited by
a variety of strange beings and periodically
overcome by a living Darkness that literally
transforms everything it touches. As Rose
searches for her little girl, she begins to learn the
history of the strange town and realizes that her
daughter is just a pawn in a larger game.
