Synopsis

It's been years since language was outlawed. Speech, writing, all sacrificed for the sake of Unity.
 
A small-town teacher dying from cancer can't remember the last time she spoke to her husband. Their life has been filled with resentment and tragedy, but burying their grievances in the silence helps them endure.
 
They both have hard decisions to make when Corvo – a living crime – breaks into their farmhouse. Unlike other children, her vocal cords haven't been removed at birth. Words rush back into the couple’s lives and, for the first time in years, they'll have to face the damage silence has done to them.
 
If that doesn't destroy them, the town's Sheriff will. She sees Corvo as a chance to regain some sanity in a world she herself helped make silent, and will stop at nothing to get her.

    A wedding. A murder. A 200-year-old curse: Ishmael Jones is plunged into a baffling investigation when he answers an old friend’s call for help. Although he hasn’t seen Robert Bergin for 40 years, Ishmael feels duty bound to respond when his old friend calls for help. Robert’s daughter Gillian is about to be married, and he is afraid she’ll fall prey to the ancient family curse. Arriving in rural Yorkshire, Ishmael and his partner Penny learn that the vicar who was to perform the ceremony has been found dead in the church, hanging from his own bell rope. With no clues, no evidence and no known motive, many locals believe the curse is responsible. Or is someone just using it as a smokescreen for murder? With the wedding due to take place the following day, Ishmael has just a few hours to uncover the truth. Performed by Scott McCormick, Laura C. Harris, Christopher Walker, Zeke Alton, Lydia Kraniotis, Joel David Santner, Henry Kramer, Norah Achrati, Marni Penning, Bradley Smith, Jillian Levine-Sisson, Jessica Lauren Bell, Steve Wannall, Matthew Schleigh, Michael John Casey and Colleen Delany.
