Plot:
A young and beautiful Philippine woman, Lanie and her two children, Albert and Kim, travel during the difficult times of the Covid-19 pandemic, amid flights ban, lock downs and discrimination. They leave northern Italy, where a dangerous and shameful xenophobia, triggered by Covid-19 pandemic, is going on. Lanie and her two kids were getting threatening looks in their adoptive country, because they were often mistaken for Chinese nationals, and decided to return to their native country. They decided to leave Italy a few days before the first lock down ever done in the western world. But an incident involving her infant Albert forced her to spend a long period of time in a foreign country, making her journey quite difficult and spoiling her plans. The Silent Killer is a modern silent film that follows, after 3 years, the silent film A Perfect Family (2017) which presents almost the same cast. The Silent Killer, which is technically a mockumentary (since it alternates the story of the family with chronicles about Covid-19 from all around the world), has been one of the two official selections from Italy to the prestigious 14th International Silent Film Festival of Manila. The Silent Killer is clearly an adaptation work of a film with full sound and dialogues since it features interviews to politicians, normal people, celebrities that got infected with Covid 19 and scientists (like the virologist Fabrizio Pregliasco and Dr. Carlo Alberto Zaccagna) that explain the pandemic (the first), and educate people on how to better prepare to fight the disease (the second). This work is embellished by the music of Italian Composer Franco Eco.
