Horror set in the eerie and deserted town of Silent Hill where a young mother
is desperate to find a cure for her only child's illness. Unable to accept the
doctor's diagnosis that her daughter should be permanently institutionalised
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 realises that her daughter is just a pawn in a
larger game.
