The story centres around Johan (Cornelio Wall Fehr), a married man who against the laws of his faith and traditional beliefs, falls in love with another woman, thus facing the dilemma of whether to betray his wife and disrupt the apparent stability of the community or sacrifice his true love and future happiness. Sublimely shot, entirely on location in the Mexican Mennonite community near Chihuahua, SILENT LIGHT opens with what is arguably the single most remarkable shot of the year; dawn breaking over the rural landscape. |
