In this episode, we're talking about Martin Scorsese's 2016 film Silence, an adaptation of the Shûsaku Endô novel of the same name. The film follows two Portuguese Jesuit priests who travel to 17th century Japan to find their mentor, who has been accused of apostasy. Along the way, they are forced to confront their own faith and doubt in the face of persecution and torture.

We'll discuss the film's historical context, its themes of faith, doubt, and persecution, and how it affects us, as Catholic Women.

Join us for a thought-provoking and challenging discussion of one of Martin Scorsese's most acclaimed film.
